New to the DE shaving world. Switched over from my Fusion. I picked up a cheap Weishi due to positive reviews that said it was a very mild razor. I started with an Escali brush but have quickly bumped up to an Omega Pro 49 which fits my bear paws great. I went with Proraso Soap and some Nivea and Clubmans aftershave. I went with some Derby blades to start.
So far I am loving it. I am getting very close shaves with very few nicks, down to only 1 this last shave. I have quickly realized that I am never going to be able to shave my neck against the grain without it breaking out like crazy. The good news is that I am getting a closer shave on the neck by going WTG twice than I ever did with the Fusion.
I recently made some purchases on various blades, which include : Gillette Platinum, Gillette Permasharp. Gillette Superplatinum, Gillette Silver Blue, Astra Platinum, Shark, Wilkinson Sword, and Feather (going to tuck these away for a while). So my question is, what blade should I try next?
