Hi Ron, welcome aboard. Ingrown hair is a problem that occurs more and more with multiblade disposables or cartridges. With use of Single/Double edge or straight razors, it will be soon cured.
I really have been considering getting a straight razor. Just worried about my skin. I will ready the post about the 30 day challenge. Thanks!!!!!
Bring your thought to the 30 Day Crew. I started my Wet Shave Journey with straights, shavettes, and then discovered DE & SE razors. There are a number of daily straight shavers in The Crew who can guide you in choosing your first SR, then offer all the hints and tips to developing all the skills you'll need; stropping, honing, handling skills for difficult to shave places on your neck, etc. It is a fast paced thread full of shave of the day photos, vacation pictures from around the world, family shots of our kids and grandkids, recipes for BBQ, triumphs and tragedies as we learn new razors, & enablers convincing others to try new products. Did I mention Shenanigans?
