On a plus note it has eliminated the slight shaving rash I always seem to get on the right side of my neck.

Should I persevere or knock it on the head? I did think about getting a once a week deep cleanser but fook that.

tAlk to me men of the board, do you use any of this shit?

Maaaan,that's hardcore and old school!! You have to take your time,get the skin wet with hot water which makes all the hairs stand up, then rub the cshaving foam in circles,gently,over yor cheeks and neck.Do this for a while and then wet your blade and take short,smooth strokes,always shaving in the direction of the hair.Wash your face with warm water after the shave and pat it dry. I recommend anything from the Clinique brand but Ithink it's quite pricey.
As for razor burn,that can be due to a number of factors:having the same razor for too long,poor technique,hair was not wet enough etc etc. And no,I'm not gay,I just like to take care of myself for the chicas!
