So I typically shave with a safety as they are easy to use and cheap on the blades. I decided to try a shavette razor the last few weeks. I have since gotten the hang of it, but it does feel way more awkward and not a whole lot better, as such it takes far longer to use. Tho the shave is still rather good.
Did you try a blade sampler pack? I find the feel of the blade to be way more pronounced than in a safety, especially anywhere sensitive. I tend toward much less aggressive blade in the shavette.
