Manscaping 101 field trials:Merkur safety razor first shave

I did it and lived.  I had my first shave with the Merkur Progress safety razor.  Really, it wasn’t bad.  Only minor bleeding.  One thing for sure is that I’m really glad I watched The Shaving Tutor’s video on how to shave with this bugger.  Before I get into my experience (with pictures), here is […]

It took me days, maybe a week to figure it out (when my glasses are on I can’t focus on stuff like that in […]
