3. Pre-shave... I shave AFTER a shower always but still find my hairs aren't soft at all and this could also be a cause of my bad shaves, I've tried rubbing Proraso on whilst in the shower as well but this doesn't seem to make any difference as well.. The weird thing is I am only a teenager and don...

Thanks, can you please tell me the differences between cream and soap, I mainly have creams, but I have one soap which I got free with my razor.. Not sure if it is good quality or not etc.. What brand of soap did you get? It's just the companys own brand, I bought the razor and a brush and bowl fro...

Here is the detailed explanation of how to face lather well: 0. Wet your face, dripping wet, with warm water. 1. Wet your brush with warm water. 2. Shake most of the water out of the brush (but not all). 3. Rub the tips of the bristles on the soap, about 5 or 10 times. More strokes on the soap if n...

Just so you know am using a multiblade razor.. I normally use the Quattro, but have a Fusion and have just bought a mach 3 as well, but not used it yet.

I've seen them all lol. Was hoping for answers outside those

Hi guys, I'm struggling with my shaving, and before I go onto DE shaving there are three things I want to sort out first. 1. Lathering.. I want to do it without a bowl for now, as I struggle with the basics are there any videos/detailed explanations that sohw how to do thi swell? 2. Finding the grai...

Personally, I'd stay away from both of them and maybe try a Sensor or a Mach 3. The fewer the blades the better. I don't think I'll ever go back to multi blade cartridges after going to DE razors. Yeah I have been meaning to get a mach 3 but just confused as there seem to be so many different versi...

Well I shave with my Quattro today, and got a fairly close shave in most places (ATG everywhere) in one stroke but still had several cuts and it just doesn't feel comfortable, it feels like the razor is tugging the skin and is almost painful when cutting the hairs. I have a feeling it is due to poo...

In short, using a Quattro :D If you feel more comfortable using a cartidge, in my humble opinon, I'd opt for the two blade base Sensor. I think you'll find less drag...the head is smaller, and none of that wire guard stuff... Otherwise, I'd pick up some of the Bic Originals (all white)...if I didn'...

Anybody? :) With a cartridge razor, on my face, one pass against the grain is enough to do a good job. Have you tried that? (With a double-edge, you never go against the grain right away; but in my experience, cartridges play by very different rules.) L'Oreal gel - I have no experience with it. Qua...

I focus on my neck, which is my problem area. But I think you'll find, if you spread your fingers, it'll cover most of your shaving area.

All the best,

Thanks, so do your hairs feel different after? Or just feel the same to you..

Just wondering guys how is the best way to use proraso pre shave cream?

I tried putting it on in shower and washing it off before but stubble didn't exactly feel soft after, pretty much the same..

Hey guys,

For those of you who use a face cloth.. how do you go about it as I have normal sized face cloths but it is impossible to cover neck AND face.. I can only do one or the other..

Thanks

Anybody?

Sorry when I say "fine" i meant it was fairly close (not perfect anywhere though, and still bad on certain areas on neck and around chin, but reasonable in my experiences). Where would you suggest I go from now? OK, let's go back to the beginning. 1. What shaving items are you using now? ...

Where would you suggest I go from now? Obviously I want a smooth shave but with no cuts and nicks as well..

No Sam, I'm saying do it differently. Take a disposable razor and shave with the grain only. Then do it again. I don't use any prep other than shower. Squire Tried this today, WTG gave me a very bad shave, not close at all, ATG was fine, but stills same problem areas on neck.. and did get plenty of...
