Its Here! Gave it a try today and I think it went pretty good. Way different then the mach3. I can see I have some learning to do so it should be fun.
Nice, I use a 99r as well, and I do like it! I find it a bit more aggressive than my Gillette Rocket or my Weishi, but I get great shaves from it with Shark blades. Enjoy!
Welcome! Many who are new to wet-shaving often find the creams easier to lather than the soap pucks. I would recommend starting there.
Just remember slow and gentle with the correct angle wins the race. Concentrate on an irritation, razor burn and nick free shave for now. Speed and closeness will come over time..
