I had a truly fantastic shave today. It looks great (sometimes my dark beard can still be seen even with a close shave, making it look not all that close) and feels amazing. I think this is the single best shave I have ever accomplished.
I still feel a little scritch in places on my neck, which is why I call this shave "DFS+": BBS in most places, DFS in some places. Today's shave was so good that I thought maybe my criterion for BBS was off. So I did something I've never done before: I got out a cotton ball and did the test. Guess what: I failed.
I do not want a better shave than this, nor do I think I am capable of it with the neck I've been given. Many have said it before, but I'll chime in again from one newbie to other newbies: the end goal is not BBS for everyone. Get a shave you like without irritation and be a happy man all day long.
