Thanks everyone! I reverted to my cartridge this morning since I had to get ready for work and didn't get to take my time (and I certainly didn't want to rush my second DE shave). I look forward to the next one as I learn this new skill.
I do have a question, though - I used a Derby blade for that first shave, and the more I read on these forums, the more it sounds like those are not the most liked blades. While I agree I shouldn't change things around too much at first while I learn how to shave with a DE, would it make sense for me to change to a different blade (then stick with that for a good number of shaves), or stick with the Derby? I have quite a few in my sample pack, including Gillette Silver Blues.
