What still shaving system?

After more than 10 years shaving razors with various system reached my problem with ingrown hairs but an annoyance that required action. Besides, I was not really ready, about 2 to pay monthly for system shaving blades whose only innovation are the multi-blade heads.

Because I let no electricity in my face out of principle, I decided it times with a planer to try. I shave because of ingrown hairs anyway only once a week, so I had enough time and patience to try it, instead of it just to do hastily morning after getting up.
It was said, moreover, that a planing ingrowth hair not so favored because it shears the hair right on the surface, and not pulling out there with the first blade, and the shearing edge is so beneath the skin.

Since my first planing not necessarily have to be my last, my choice fell on this planer mill, together with Gilette Astra Superior blades, and a shaving of Palmolive.
By my very first ever shaver, a Gillette Contour Plus I was used to the correct angle, and so I prepared the planing no effort. The first shave is still unclean, because the technology is just not yet perfected, but with time you get used to everything, and the skin is babypopoglatt - at least on the cheeks. The neck will stay with me always something scratchy, that has always been so, and does not bother me.

The difference with the multi blades razor, though, is that the hair is cut directly on the surface. This leaves me with a slight beard shadow, and the skin already feels directly the next day schmirgelig to instead only on the second day, but I can live with as a 7-day beard-wearer.

I'm not entirely shaved, but wear a Abraham Lincoln beard. The contours to cut properly requires some practice initially, because the planing head a simply denied the view of the shearing edge. But over time, you can also get a feel for it.

I use the planer now for almost a year, and had only between times a 5-blade razor as a promotional gift. In contour cutting Comparison of 5-blade razor is cruel, and the planer head and shoulders.

He even looks like new, only at the centerpiece is the place where the stem comes into contact, something started. Never mind shaving, he still does.
My stock of 100 razor blades will still hold forever because I maybe a month consumes a maximum of 2 pieces.

I regret the purchase of the plane for a second, and enjoy the few quiet minutes in the bath per week, which are almost sacred to me, and where I was not allowed to interfere. I can even collect my thoughts, and come time to rest.

I am someone who likes to perform the shave, and it works perfectly with such a planer. Absolute buy recommendation.
