Anyone shave with all 3?

DE only. For now...

Straights on face, but an occasional head shave with a DE.

About 35 shaves into straights, went straight only two weeks ago. Last Wednesday I used a DE on the road. I will never give Up DE completely, but I am trying to use straights only until my skills are fully ingrained.

Mongoose and various DEs(mainly 2011 R41 though)

Various DE and SE tbh don't fancy head shaving with a straight

I use my straight when I have more time, and a DE when I have less. Though I usually touch up my straight shaves with an ATG DE pass as well.

I've never used an SE. The 'Goose is tempting but I don't want to invest in another disposable blade type right now. Maybe later in the year.

I do enjoy straights and DEs. I make time to work with the straight daily but I'll still rely on a DE for travel or if I'm in a rush.

I use a straight pretty regularly, but have periods of using the DE. I would say overall I'm 50/50.

I use all three, but mostly DEs and straights. I have a few SEs, but haven't quite worked them into the rotation as much ... yet.

I only use a DE. I'm curious about other razors and learning more about what's out there every day, but I reckon it'll be quite awhile before I get up the nerve to try to learn with a straight.

SE with an occasional cart shave. Use Gillette Guard for head shaving.

straights and DE

Double edge and Single edge/Injector at the moment.

I may end up getting a shavette soon.

Straights 99% of the time, but I admit I do travel with a mach 3 for convince.

DE, Gem-style SE, Auto-Strops and Rolls...and certainly curious about injectors (which I used 45 years ago!) and straights.

i'm investigating at straights but i think its a long way off.
currently looking at ebay for for some SE's.

Although I have a few straight razors laying around, I have never tried using one. Not sure I ever will. I usually shave with an open comb DE (occasionally a slant or S/B), but I have a collection of GEM's and injectors that I fool around with once in a while when I am feeling adventurous. I just got a Mongoose in the mail this week. My initial experience on yesterday was not good but it was not the razor's fault - I did not have it tightened properly and the blade was loose in the shaver - I noticed this and against my better judgment, I tried shaving with it anyway. I took the day off from shaving today to let my face heal. I figured out what I was doing wrong and tomorrow I am going to give the Mongoose another shot.

SE can be had for such a low price that its hard to not buy more then one, I really like The Gem Microcromatic open comb.

DE only for now . . . want to eventually add Straight shaves to my skill-set, though . . .

I use DE during the work week, and straights on the weekends.
