Dec 18, 2011 - I have the 1947 Gillette Milord with original box got it from a friend in Uruguay, the thing works amazingly its the only things i use. People think I am crazy considering that I am only 19 and no one uses them anymore.

Dec 24, 2011 - Hello all I am looking to switch from Gillette fusion(multiply blade) razors to a saftey razor. I have sensitive skin and I get razor burn/ingrown hairs easily. Will I notice much difference if I make the change? My beard also grows back fast and thick so I would like to at least once a week.

Jan 26, 2012 - I need help, please. My girlfriend wants me to shave my pubic hair area, but I am not comfortable in doing so because I'm afraid of cutting myself. What should I do? .... And how do I shave my pubic hair area?

Jan 27, 2012 - dont ever shave that area with a razor.You need to buy a small clipper,one like the regular used for hair cut but the small version.That way you dont cut yourself and still get a close shave aboiding ingrown hairs or shaving bumps, check Whal shavers.They are cheap batteyr or charger operated may cost 20 or 25 but you will save in the long run plus save your skin

fede4real Says:

Jan 27, 2012 - those clippers are used on dry hair&skin and leave no irritation at all since it doesnt pull the hair off the folicle it just cut it too short that its not visible to the eye but not as close as a razor so you dont cut yourself or get post shave complications.Dont try the rotatory ones or the pulling type or you will feel sorry you had. This clipper type is the answer

Feb 6, 2012 - Hello, I am 20 and I recently inherited my grand fathers razor and accessories. I decided to put them to use and just have a quick question to help identify some blades. The blades that I have are the ones on the top left that you pick up and press the blades out. Are these blades decent? I have a really thick coarse beard as both my father and grandfather had. If they are no good, what are some good choices for my type of beard?

Feb 11, 2012 - Thank you. I'm 29 and after getting tired of multiblade razors, did a search finding excellent reviews on a Merkur, I decided to get that with the brush and shaving soap recommened (again by amazon.) I wish I'd been able to find your channel first. I had done everything wrong from not lathering the soap enough, getting a good coating and generally being impatient with the process. Having made the mistakes, then watching these (and having the mistakes explained,) has been very helpful. Thank you.

Mar 18, 2012 - I got an Edwin Jagger De89lbl w/ "Derby Extra" blades. I can't get results.  After 4 passes I still have stubble which is almost totally removed by my electric razor. Today by mistake I shaved with the head loose resulting in the blade being slightly lifted. I got quite the close shave! It's not ideal because the head isn't tight & flops around. Is it fine to do this? Or modify it myself so the blade is lifted a bit? Am I risking removing skin? Would trying a different blade instead help?

Mar 23, 2012 - idk why but i wanna buy a single blade razor and shave and smoke a cigarette lit with a zippo, hmmmm idk why that image went through my head

Apr 13, 2012 - I have been doing DE shaving for around a month now, and I still cant get the technique right it would seem. I get confused when the change the blade(silly i know), as even new blades still seem to drag and pull when i am going up under my neck. Why is this?

mantic59 Says:

Apr 18, 2012 - there could be several reasons but it usually comes down to preparation, blade angle, and no pressure on the razor.

mantic59 Says:

Apr 18, 2012 - I would not recommend using a loose blade in the razor.
