I have been DE shaving for a few years, 6 or so, can't actually remember.
I received a shavette free with an order of bits and pieces a couple of years ago and didn't think much of it but did try using it eventually. With mixed results, I kept going back to it occasionally and now use it at weekends or when I have a little more time. I'm not proficient really as I now realise I have been doing some things wrong from the beginning but do like the shave I generally get from it.
Reading here a bit I'm wondering if I should try a true straight razor rather than messing around occasionally with what seems to be a bit of a poor cousin.
What are your thoughts? I would like to learn this properly but readily admit I'm more likely to clean up quickly with a DE at the moment when time is tight.
