The Glade 4.0

Yes. If it's a normal work week I'll do a quick once-over and be done. If I'm going for a close shave, three passes with reapplication of lather before each. One pass with the grain, the perpendicular, then against. Short strokes, no razor burn. Works best after a hot shower.

Once with the grain, once against the grain, usually immediately without reapplication of shaving cream. I almost always have to re-do parts of my neck and a part on my chin with shaving cream. No matter how much I change angles, I always have to do those trouble-spots like 3 times.

Switched to DE shaving a few weeks ago. Wasn't all *that* jazzed about it initially. But that was all down to the blades.

First blades I tried were Merkur. Bottom line, they sucked ***. Pulling and tearing my face fuzz out by the root it felt like. So, out they went.

I also got a 5 pack of Gillette when I got the razor. These were better, and I managed to rip a huge chunk of skin out of my shin, but they were still kinda eh.

FF to getting a box of 100 astra blades off Amazon. $16 for a hundred blades that are supposed to be pretty good? Alright, I'll bite. Shaves similar to a cartridge, but WAY cheaper. Astras are pretty good.

FF again to today when I got a pack of 50 feathers in the mail. Same price as the Astras, but half as many. I can dig it, np. These things laughed at my facial hair. They were all "come at me bro!" I put my game face on, and shaved it the **** off. These are the bomb diggity. Best shave I have had in a long while.

Yar. It makes the road rash easier to care for. If it happens. Which I hope it doesn't.
