Ordered a bottle of RazoRock Santa Maria Del Fiore. I am trying to find something affordable to accompany it as a cologne.
How are you finding the Jaws, Rob?
Welcome! Your vintage razor is a Gillette Tech. Both the razors you have will perform well but you'll need to develop your technique. Don't be put off by your first few shaves. I'd also recommend proper shaving soaps and creams over gel. Don't use the pressure you'd use with a cartridge razor on either of the razors you have there.Hi
New here and new to DE shaving, last time I used a safety razor was 40 years ago and that wasnt a good experience. I have been using Gillette cassette blades since then but I am cheesed off at the high price of the blades and they did not seem to be shaving me close enough.
So today I raided a supermarket and bought a Wilkinson razor and some bits to help me get a good shave. I have watched the many youtube vids,
sinatralennon in particular, so I hope I am ok in knowing what to do.
I also saw an unused travel kit in a charity shop with a little Gillette DE razor, if you can identify the razor model I would be obliged. The kit came with an Ever ready blade, again unused
Would expect the shaving experience to be better with the Gillette or the Wilkinson or nothing in it?
