Second day same blade = Irritation

As you'll see from the survey the second day did not go as well for the same blade as I might of hoped. Had some irritation when focusing on the problem areas and the places I missed last time. This will be interesting information to use when trying adjuncts to shaving like shave oil and after shaving techniques. 





1.     Smoothness of Shave/Ease: 4 Easy to shave with but found each stroke more irritation then the last, I think with my tough beard 1 razor per shave is enough.


2.     # of Strokes per square inch: 2 to 3


3.     Skin smoothness – Upper Lip: 3 Some roughness near lip corners.


4.     Skin smoothness – Lower Lip:  4 much better than last time, focus more on areas that I seemed to miss last time.


5.     Skin smoothness – Chin: 4 Smooth with some bumps due to razor burn.


6.     Skin smoothness – Cheeks: 3.5 smooth with bumps from razor burn, not sensitive to the touch.


7.     Skin smoothness – Jaw Line: 4 No stubble some bumps from razor burn, somewhat irritated and sensitive to the touch.


8.     Skin smoothness – Overall: 3 Smooth with only some areas bumpy from razor burn, not much stubble if any, deficiency of smoothness due to razor burn not stubble


9.     Skin Irritation: Overall not much, there is some irritation under jaw line and neck areas. I found that during shaving I could feel the irritation from the lack of sharpness of the razor. Could be due to toughness of beard. Skin is sensitive to skin contact, i.e. hand, not as sensitive  to towel rubbing.

10.                         Nicks/Cuts: Small nicks under chin mostly and neck that bled in shower no redness after or bleeding.
