Somebody told me, maybe it was you, that using a mild razor like the Featherweight is good to take the bite/harshness off a new blade. Maybe not so much for me!I think maybe I started the shave a bit overconfident, as I was on a pretty good run since I gave up doing a third pass ATG.
Just a reminder if you've already heard it or a heads up if you haven't. Using almost ZERO pressure with an SE is a good practice for most people. Angle and pressure are really important. And I have to remind myself of that constantly BTW.
I lean on mine pretty good, no pressure = no shave.
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
