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.

    It can take some getting used to, but I can shave in under 30 seconds once the lather is on my face. I don’t shave everything, just lining up the beard line, but a full face shave would take about a minute and a half tops. Pulling the skin taut with your off hand helps. Play around with how you hold it too. I typically fold my handle almost all the way around so I can control the tilt with more precision. Go slow until you naturally go fast. You’ll naturally speed up with practice.
