Badger and Blade??

TheShaun

Anyone frequent Badger and Blade? I'm in the process of putting together my first double edge shaving kit and this site is packed full of info and super friendly forumites.

Besides being the king of cigar knowledge, I think you're right and Kuzi is the master of the blades.

hey B, if you are having mad razor burn, try shaving in the shower. it works sooooo much better. also shave down, and after fully shaved, then shave up. I have super sensitive skin and this helps me a ton. not that i don't like the idea of a big bath with a smoke and some bourbon

I shave down on my neck but the idea of shaving up afterwards seems like it would lead to a bloody mess!...lol. I always shave right after the shower. Does it make a difference if it's in the shower as opposed to immediately after? I'm a bit anal...I hate not being able to see where I'm cutting...lol!

for me, prep is everything. if i am going to shave in the morning, before i go to bed, i will put a light lotion on my face. i ALWAYS shower before i shave.

Agreed with that. To help soften up the whiskers and make for a smoother shave with no irritation, I'll lather up my face and wear it into the shower and keep it on for at least 5 minutes. Doing that, when I put razor to skin, it shaves like butter. And as you mentioned, 2 passes gets a decent shave, 4 and a little spot shaving gets BBS to the max. And I just have to give thanks to AWOL member rusirius, without his knowledge and guidance I'd probably still be shaving with a Mach 3. *shudders*

I sprung for a $22 brush based on reviews. I've never done a safety razor shave yet, just putting together my kit.
