Hi gents,
I started to use a DE 4 months ago -7 days a week - and still look for the best razor/blade/soap A/S combination....I do enjoy the "technical part of it...." but have somehow managed to irritate the lower part of my neck on constant basis with all these experiments ....
i cold shave and try to stick to all the great advices I read and learned from this forum...but still had to learn something simple....2 step shaving.
I cold shave on a 3 pass basis (WTG and 2x XTG) BUT leave the lower part of my neck (LPON) unshaved. step 1
When step 1 is over, I generously lather the LPON and very slowly/carefully shave on a 3 pass basis 2 x WTG and 1 XTG. Step 2
i know this is everything but orthodox however I totally eliminated the problem and get very clean and deep shaves almost BBS.
Most of you will certainly ask me why do I need 2 steps.....and they might be right.
My conclusion is that I am still a beginner and with this basic technique (?) I do pay more attention to the most critical part of the shaving session.
This was my 000.2 cents contribution but .....might help other beginners as well.
