    Day 18.

    Back to the straight again. I got three passes in today, then cleaned up some with the Ever Ready. I used the left hand some, but less than I have been. I ended up with a little irritaton this time. Angle could still use work I think.

    So many great shaves this morning!!
    I just can't compete, but still got in a wonderful one pass face and head shave with the Schick E-2. 2cd time on the blade and with all the usual Suspects. Had to hurry, but still did a great rush job. Clean, smoth and no issues!

    Read it all. Glad you got a good shave today. There is nothing wrong with changing things up on this thread. The biggest challenge a newer wet shaver faces is finding and maintaining the correct shaving angle throughout the entire shave, especially on the parts of the face that aren't flat. We recommend sticking with a set-up for 30 days, because it can take that long to really understand the idiosyncrasies of the gear. Your choice, of course and the main thing is that you are enjoying your shaves.

    In other words...feel free to molest ANYTHING as long as it's not Williams. Correct, Fuzzy?

    Suggestion...Don't chase the baby. Chase a great technique and the baby'll find you.
