Completed my first DE wetshave on July 4th with a Merkur 38C and the Merkur blade it came with. I used T&H UC cream on a EJ BB medium. Wow! 3 passes and some XTG touch up and my face was still smooth by the 9pm fireworks show. Wow! From start to finish I enjoyed every minute of my first DE experience and my face felt 'happy' for the first time in a long time.
I've beed a Fusion wetshaver for years and finding this site has been a godsend. Actually it's been more like the proverbial DE sword. XAD where X stands for shavers, creams, brushes, etc., has gripped me like vice. It will not let go. I love it!
I spent a lot of time on BB and other sites getting ready for this day and I think all the great advice I gleaned is what made it a success. So, I just wanted to pass my thanks along to the BB community. So much great info here. I look forward to the years ahead . . .
