In hindsight, I think I may have made a small tactical misjudgement in undertaking my first shave on a 4 day old beard, maybe.
From Lidl. Cheap, effective & no cuts.
But the main issue with wet shaving is making sure your face has got hot enough & wet enough. This is best achieved by having a hot shower just beforehand but if not possible then at least running a bowlful of hot water and putting it over your face for a good few minutes before applying soap.
If you donât do this youâll get cuts.

Modern razors are designed to be mashed against your face and are very forgiving of changing contours - whereas with a safety razor you need to carefully manage the glide path of the blade around your face and use much shorter strokes, always following the direction of hair growth - never against otherwise you can guarantee rashes.
Yes, but thatâs why modern multi-bladed razors are far, far better - you can go against the grain without leaving your face in ribbons and therefore achieve a much closer shave

A friend of mine only uses hot water, nothing else.

If you practice and acquire the skill then DE razor can be as good/ better than modern multi blades. Also the cost of safety razor blades is peanuts even accounting for having to change them more frequently.
How much better? Has anyone ever tried to measure it? (actually Iâm sure they will have somewhere)
Bearing in mind facial hair grows at between 0.25 & 0.5mm per day, how many hours would the advantage be worth?
Rub test for smoothness
All adequate razors are identical under ABX conditions.
