Hey guys long time follower, first time poster. I'm looking for some insight to what I'm noticing during my shaves. My go to razor Merkur 34c. My go to blade personna blue. On a new blade I notice it has what I call a break-in period (the first 2 shaves) irritate my face by the 3rd pass. I can't get real close on pass 3. The 4rd to the 5th shaves are silky smooth...no hurt or burn on the 3rd pass. Question, have I been using the wrong blades or is this "break-in period" normal.
I have used feather with similar results.
Dorco and derby burn.
Wilkinson don't feel smooth.
I have some 7 o'clock yellows but haven't tried them yet.
All opinion and questions welcome
Typical 3 pass shaves out of the shower wtg, xtg, atg. Shave soap mwf.
