Well today my shave was strangely very bad.
I only changed a few things from my usual shave routine.
Today I used,
Trumpers Rose Cream
Merkur HD w/ Derby on day 2
I usually use TOBS Mr Taylor and being kinda new to DE shaving this was only the second time I've used a blade more than once (been trying out different makes). My technique was exactly the same i.e. light hold of razor, 2 pass WTG and XTG which has never resulted in bleeding like I had today.
Trumpers has performed poorly for me in the past with an M3 but I fancied something different today however my 2nd shave with a Merkur blade was ten times better than a 2nd shave with my Derbys.
So is it the Trumpers not working for me, or the derbys, or both?
My neck is fine now after a stingy session with alum and a healthy dose of TOBS balm.
Help
