Hi all
As being pretty new to the DE world I am well aware that changing your setup can cause problems. when I got my fist kit I said to myself I would settle in with astra blades as they were pretty easy to grab hold of. When I originally bought my razor it come with a pack of 5 bluebirds to get you going. I used 2 of these blades before my astra blades arrived to which I swapped over.
I have now had around 12 shaves with the Astra's and I have been getting quite a bit of razor burn and irritation which is something I have not had before. I swapped over to my bluebird for the last couple of shaves as a test and the irritation has eased to the point of no more, I do find the bluebirds a closer shave too.
The only problem is now is where do I find bluebird blades! I have searched my usual avenues but not having much luck, all the bluebird blades I can find tend to be in the sample packs. If anyone knows a supplier then it would be great, or if anyone has a secret sash anywhere then I do have 20 astra's for a straight swap if interested.
