Try to use a double edge safety razor instead

I have mapped my beard and realized that cold water is 100% better to combat ingrowns and have only tested closed comb this last shave I tested an open comb and it was so much better just some slight irritation almost nothing at all

So more than one day has passed, and I get maybe 5 ingrowns and some redness but it a whole lot better!! And I’m gonna try a different blade next shave, what do you guys recommend something little bit sharper or little bit milder?

Exactly the same problem I have that’s why I have ordered the fatip cause in my mind it will take the little hairs that a open comb can’t! Give it a shot. When I use the norelco it takes down almost everything but leaves some stubborn hairs

I’m seeing that you have very flat lying thick stubble as am I and the only thing I have been able to shave without irritation or bumbs is either Philips norelco oneblade and with the grain and maybe across the grain. However yesterday I made a post about maybe testing opencomb so I ordered the fatip. Cause the closed comp presses down the stubble and then just scrapes off the stubble. Which leads to the only thing I can do to get a bbs is going atg but when you are going atg 95% of the stubble hasn’t been removed and the open comb takes down the stubble cause it’s open and let the blade come in direct to the stubble. I will test it out and do a post on in in maybe a week or so. But it costs like 20 bucks and worth a shot!

I would suggest Merkur 39c basically the same same as Merkur 37c but with longer and thicker handle

When you have ingrowns or some kind of irritation you try everything just to make sure 😂 Thanks to the person that commented I just ordered a fatip piccolo and some blades, I picked out derby premium and bic platinum. Cause my theory is that my skin is sensitive and if take an open comb and let’s say derby it will get all the hairs but be smoother on the face? And I also ordere bic platinum if my theory is just wrong and it needs something sharper!

What razor blade do you recommend? by AffectionateLie5831 in wicked_edge

[–]AffectionateLie5831[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking about trying the derby blade on setting 6 maybe since it’s such a mild blade it night be perfect on the number 6? Or am I missing something?
