Hi,
I have been DE shaving for a few months now. I feel my technique is 'good enough' but still improving. Regular nicks, cuts and weepers are a thing of the past except for the occasional one now and again. I get a BBS face after 3 1/2 passes most days (with the 1/2 being the same few areas i need to re do).
I love the Jagger razor I have, it looks good and seems to suit my shaving style to a tee...
BUT...
SAD is kicking in so i was wondering what would be a reasonably priced (under £40 or so) razor from the opposite end of the shaving spectrum or, and this would be my preferred option) something adjustable so i can have a play.
Modern adjustable seem to have gone out of vogue with the only ones i can find being quite expensive from merkur. Yes I could go vintage but if I do that i'd want to go birth year (Quarter 1 - 1969 - Gillette code O1 ) and they don't seem to crop up that often in good usable condition, or for a reasonable price. They are usually from the states with monster postage.
So a 2 part question... are there any other reasonably priced new adjustables about and what other non adjustable razor would give me a different (not necessarily better or worse) shaving experience to my DE89?
