Hello everyone!
I'm a long time lurker. New here, but not new to wet shaving.
I've got a coarse/wiry beard (like a hedgehog, hence the ID), and sensitive skin (particularly my chin and sometimes my neck on the left side). I won't bore you with all the details but long story short; if my shave is either too efficient or a tug-fest I'll get ingrown hairs/razor bumps primarily on my chin 48 hours later. Hence I'm only able to shave twice a week in a three and four day cycle. My beard is dense and grows fast, so my requirements are very different compared to a daily shaver.
I'm mainly a DE shaver. I also dabble with SE, and dare I say a couple of cartridge razors. After many years, I have a few combination of razors (modern and vintage) and blades that work fairly well for me causing as little ingrown hairs/razor bumps as possible (a new combination that currently looks promising at the time of this post). I don't push for BBS as it'd cause too much irritation for me. I'm usually capable of DFS or thereabouts.
If someone in the UK or EU has a Schick Adjustable Injector Razor in reasonable condition for a fair price, please get in touch. I'm not bothered about a case or blades to go with it, just the razor in good working order itself.
Cheers for now!
