Love your work mate and great to see you on here. I went through your videos when I started DE shaving and found them very helpful. A few friends have converted to DE shaving and all of them start on your page.
Lol, ok thanks
I remember watching Mantic59's how to wet shave with DE razors a few years ago. Helped me on my ozbargain journey of super cheap blades… compared to Gillette 10 blade cartridge bs. Unfortunately, I seem to have acquired at least a dozen DE and SE razors, 4 brushes, hundreds of blades, and countless shaving soaps and creams along the way.
42 pages on shaving? Wow……
Once you read the book, if you want to get started I'd suggest:

Thanks again mjwills excellent advise, your post 2.5 years ago is what got me into DE
Bestshave.net based in Turkey is where I get my soap, brushes and blades. Takes just over a week for delivery to Adelaide.

Interested in swapping a pack or two of your/mine blades mjwills?
Great advice.

Following everyone else way off topic, these guys have decent pricing on Feather blades if that's your preference

Yep but i find the tub is cleaner/neater, less messy for traveling ;)
Erm…what's the connection between tub and DE blades
edit - Okay, I get it now. You were replying to someone else and hit the wrong button.
I get ingrown hairs when I shave, because of this I now use a trimmer.
Has anyone found this with normal razors and found moving to a wet shave has resolved this?
Or any advice?
Yes, moving to DE has resolved ingrown hair problems for many people. There is more info on this when researching DE shaving.
You know those multi-blade razors? The first blade catches the hair, and pulls it out a little; the second blade then actually cuts the hair right next to the skin. Some people find that once their hair is no longer being pulled out by the first blade, the cut hair then retracts below the skin, and then becomes ingrown as it tries to grow back out. That doesn't happen with an old-school, Madmen-style Double-Edged razor; which is (partly) what this eBook is about.
Plus, the "wet" part of wet shaving is using a stiff brush to work up a soap lather on your face, rather than just using cream from a can. A lot of people find that just using the brush lifts existing ingrown hairs (where there's a bit showing above the skin) out, even if they still shave with a cartridge (i.e. Mach 3) razor.
Looks like it's always free
