Picked up some Old Spice to try and some edt's

Oh, one other question I had was regarding cleaning. At the moment i'm just rinsing the razor under hot water. Does it need something more thorough once in a while ? If so, what's recommended ?

Yes WTG is giving good results, maybe could be a little closer but I still have lots of blades to try - So far i've only used the Astra Superior Platinum. I'm most certainly enjoying DE shaving as a whole, already got my eye on some more soaps/creams to try!

Still getting a little neck irritation but it seems to be getting better with each shave. I think you were right @Palmolive fox , just the skin getting accustomed to the new shaving method :) Still sticking to WTG for the time being

Thanks for the advice chaps. Decided to skip today due to my neck still being a little sore, back at it tomorrow :)

Ok, second DE shave completed! Better than yesterday but still a little irritation on the right side of my neck, not sure what i'm doing wrong there - I was careful to shave with the grain. Also today the lather was drying on my face, maybe I was taking too long? I just washed and re lathered

First DE Shave completed! Overall very impressed, it feels great. Went with the Astra blade as recommended. No issues with lathering etc just a slight irritation around my neck but I think that was due to a lapse in concentration. I was careful to shave with the grain on my face and for some...

I picked up some of the Proraso aftershave cream. I've been trying it with my Dorco and so far have been very impressed. I'll definitely try some of your suggestions at some point, thanks :) Does anyone have any recommendations for which blade to start with? Or does it not really matter?

The other bits arrived today. Looking forward to trying them out this evening :D

A few bits arrived today, the rest should arrive Saturday

Thanks for all of the advice. Went ahead and ordered a few bits. Looking forward to trying my first "proper" shave :D
