How's about this,
I've often described my a-ha moment with wet shaving to those that I've talked about it. You know that shave when you were first starting that everything just came together and made sense, the razor, the brush, the lather and the results, everything just clicked and you thought, "I get it now!" Did you have one? Can you describe it? When did it happen?
I had 2 actually and neither of them had anything to do with a BBS shave. The 1st time I used a brush and made a lather, it wasn't the best lather I ever made for sure, but just the feel of the brush applying the lather to my face and neck, and the shave it provided, I knew I was never going back to can goo again. The next one was about a month after I started using a Double Edge razor. I had a weeks worth of nick and weeper free shaves with no alum sting. After I finished the last shave of that week and was rinsing off and feeling my face it was like, Oh I get it now, no pressure, just let the razor do the work.
