I recently purchased a Merkur HD razor and some sampler blades and Proraso pre-shave cream, hard shaving soap, aftershave lotion and of course, styptic gel. I"m not cutting myself too much, but even though I'm doing a shower, prep, Omega Synthetic brush and WTG and ATG passes, I'm not getting the closeness I'd like. I've tried the Merkur Super the razor came with and Derby so far. Wilkinson and Dorco are left. I don't really have the time in the morning to shave with the HD given my skills-or lack thereof-but I don't want to go back to a multi-blade even though I think I got a closer shave. I appreciate any advice about blades, etc. Thanks.
