Hmm, nice change using the Injector, but its not a patch on the closeness/smoothness of a DE shave. 3 passes 1WTH 2ATG and still not as smooth as 2 and a touch up. I did have 3 days growth so maybe a bit much for it?
Lovely razor and will give it another a go with less to mow down.

Hi there,

If that's your first injector you should try a Schick. Not all injectors shave anywhere near the same. Also, some blades are better than others.

With the right set up your face might be a fair bit smoother at the end.

Yep, first time with an injector. I'm going to order some personna blades from connaughts. Its completely different from DE so I just need a few more shaves under my belt ;)
EDIT I already have the Personna blades. It must be my technique that needs honed!
