Honestly, I can't be bothered. I feel like I've let you down ;-) I've got the Proraso brush, pre-shave and soap now though, and they make the Mach 3 shave great. And with extending the life of each blade with the Razorpit, fag-packet maths gets me to 6p a shave, which I can live with]]> Chat Forum IHN https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239381 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239227 Tue, 09 Jun 2020 06:19:27 +0000 Chat Forum Paradiso https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239227 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239068 Mon, 08 Jun 2020 22:42:15 +0000 Chat Forum neilnevill https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239068 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239049 Mon, 08 Jun 2020 22:28:55 +0000 Chat Forum neilnevill https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11239049 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238586 Mon, 08 Jun 2020 16:50:25 +0000 Single biggest difference for me was probably switching from squirty foam / gel to soap and brush. Takes a bit longer but it is so much better. Yeah, I think this is why my latest shave (the Mach 3 one that killed off my DE aspirations) was so good.]]> Chat Forum IHN https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238586 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238577 Mon, 08 Jun 2020 16:46:31 +0000 Single biggest difference for me was probably switching from squirty foam / gel to soap and brush. Takes a bit longer but it is so much better. I did this prior to DE days as a scrawny 19yr old after a can of Gillette's finest exploded in my rucksack on some expedition (a 19yr old feeling the need shave on an expedition - that's wrong in other ways - I'll have a word with my former self later).

A word of caution to readers, WS make a bargain basement plastic DE razor and it is utter shite. It put me off DE shaving for years, getting a proper one was a revelation.

WS do an el cheapo brush here also, and in this case it's absolutely fine.]]> Chat Forum Cougar https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238565 https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238437 Mon, 08 Jun 2020 15:09:54 +0000 Chat Forum theboatman https://singletrackworld.com/forum/off-topic/right-god-help-me-de-shaving-a-specific-question/#post-11238437
