First DE shave last night - apart from a cut on my top lip it didn't go too badly, but it has highlighted a few problems...
Firstly - my chin is a difficult area, it has the densest (sp?) concentration of hair, and I'm sure some follicles are responsible for multiple hairs - the hair is also pretty coarse. My main concern is the actual shape of my chin, are there any tips for maintaining the correct shaving angle as you pass over a curve?
Bumps just above my chin - I have a few of these, quite small and I think they're clogged pores or trapped hairs, my shave last night seemed to take the top of these off resulting in a few pin prick marks this morning. Is this just a consequence of cartridge razors and is something will be eradicated by DE shaving?
Mouth - I seem to have hair right up to my lips and I'm concerned about how to effectively get at this without me turning into Heath Ledger's Joker - especially at the sides of my mouth where there's hair in "the creases" if you follow me...
Finally - the back of my neck, yes I shave the back of my neck roughly once a week - does anyone else do this? Is there a knack to doing this with a DE or am I better off sticking to a cartidge razor for this?
Thanks in advance.
