I prefer straight, but takes way longer and I have to be wicked careful. Safety for quicker (but still careful). And be sure to get a real badger brush. Dorco for replacement blades.
Thoughts?

I use Astra blades. i believe Madwi uses Feather blades. Can't go wrong with either. I do 1 shave, flip the blade for next time and then toss. I sitll haven't run out for over a year from a $10 box.

This is the brush I use. So freaking soft, the bristles don't fall out, and it mixes well with creams/oils.

Also, be sure to get a good shave oil and balm for afterwards. A safety razor gets about as close as possible without restructuring your face with blood.

And if you want to act like a real manly man, get a straight edge. Just don't go Sweeney on someone. I claim no responsibility if you cut your jugular.
This is what I own. Even i struggle at times with it and get some knicks of blood.

Thanks. I'm a blood thinner patient, so I'm not sure a straight blade would be a good idea.
