Shave Newbie
My name is Uwe, aged 69 and located in Munich Germany.
My father only used electr. razors. But my granddad had a single boar brush with very little hair left (the brush) when I was very small.
After using my dad‘s electr. razor to start with I moved out aged 18 and started wet shaving with a Gillette Techmatic. After the army I was wearing a full beard for nearly a decade. In 1977 I started wet shaving again with a Gillette Contour Plus, then already using various badger brushes and soaps with it.
Only August 2018, after retiring, I started DE shaving as a hobby. I do prefer mild razors R89, Rockwell 6C, GameChanger and now Karve. And as I love the soaps and the exercise I normally do 4-5 passes until the lather is gone.
I do enjoy my shaves every single day.
