[QUOTE="cody6766, post: 2842853, member: 26511"] Tony, you can get a shave as good, or better, with a DE or straight razor when compared to carts. My shaves are better than when I used a cart when I use a DE. A straight, not so much, but that's my fault. My DE shaves are better because I don't get in grown hairs anymore. It's get a new one or 3 with every cart shave (and electric), but no longer do since switching. You can't expect to as close when you switch, until you learn the razor. Technique is big here. Your hand becomes the blade's pivot, and you have to learn how your hair grows. I shave with the grain first, then against. Some do a cross grain pass second, but I don't need it. Think hair reduction, not hair removal, and use multiple passes. That will leave you smooth and happy. It does take longer, and toy find you end up with more products. I have a good shave soap, a brush, and good aftershave. It's more than a can of goo and a razor, but it's better, and cheaper in the end. I always wondered why, back in the day, dads had to teach their sons how to shave. A cart takes the thought and technique out of it. When I started wet shaving, you tube was a huge help [/QUOTE]
