Hello B&B Members! I decided afew weeks ago to make the change from my Hydro 5-blade razor and canned creamto a DE razor and soap. I purchased aVan Der Hagen Luxury Shave Kit and a Van Der Hagen DE razor (with 5 blades) atmy local drug store. For the past week Ihave been using the kit, razor and blades daily and I am impressed with the closenessof the shave. But I just havent hadthat really smooth all over shave yet. Idid try some Cremo yesterday and got about the same shave as the Van Der Hagensoap but wasnt impressed with the lather.
My question is: Whatis the next step in achieving that great smooth shave? Try a different soap? Try a different blade? Keep doing what Ive been doing and refine mytechnique before making any changes?
