I'm new to safety razor shaving. You have taught me so much about proper technique that I feel very confident when shaving. No problems! Thanks geofatboy. 😁
I've been straight and safety razor shaving for about 45 years and have never used an OC configuration. Watching your video has inspired me to give it a try and the Parker 24C looks like as good a place to start as any. Thanks geo! Shine on!
*Still learning new things from your videos Geo thanks!* I use the three Proraso White Sensitive you demoed. It's always bothered me that the pre-shave felt like it was drying out while I whipped up my lather. Now I'll be trying it making the lather *before* applying pre-shave. It just never occurred to me to make the lather first! FYI, Proraso White Sensitive works well for me without menthol, tickle, or tingles.
I have sensitive skin and have bounced all over the place on blades acne razors. I never would have thought the open comb razor would help. I use Gillette Pure shave cream and Nivea sensitive balm afterwards. Thank you for walking us through another helpful shave.
Hi Geo. I wanted to thank you for teaching me a proper way of shaving. Your videos are invaluable. I've started using Muhle R89 recently and I'm really satisfied with the results.
Hi, Geo. I have been using the ‘cold blade, hot everything else’ technique and it works great. I get no irritation even with my R41 + feather. I guess this Parker falls between the R89 and R41, right? Thanks a lot!
Great video Geo! I like it when you go more in depth like this on your shaving videos. Today I learned the option to use the preshave between passes. I learned in one of your previous video of yours that though the razor in this case is open comb and more aggressive, it can be a good choice for sensitive skin. Thank you.
Meu primeiro safety razor foi um King C GIllette. Depois passei para o Parker 24c pente aberto. Gostei muito. Estou satisfeito. Dizem que esse safety razor esta entre o Muhle R89 para o Muhle R41. Esse safety razor faz um barbear suave e eficiente. O pente aberto ajuda a esticar a pele. Tenho pele sensivel e faço a barba todos os dias. por isso que recomendo as laminas Parker. Saudaçoes daqui do Brasil.
Great review. You make it seem effortless. Would you consider this a mild razor? What’s your opinion on double open comb safety razors like razors from PAA or RazoRock?
I will swear to my dying breath that the combo of the Feather A2D2 and a German Wilkinson Sword (plus a sensitive preshave and soap) is the best for sensitive skin and coarse beard.
hmm come to think of it, I haven't ordered from shave nation in a while and recently ordered something somewhere else. Got my R41 from you and it's pretty much all I use, in a few years I'll grab my first straight from you guys. Look out for a brush, bowl, alum stick, and pre-shave order within the week or 2, I have never used a pre-shave and I've been wanting to try one of the Proraso ones due to ease of use with good results. Also how are the horse hair brushes? I was gonna buy a boar to try it out to see how it ages but these horse hair brushes really caught my attention. I'm currently using the parker pure badger and I want to do better without going crazy :P.
Hey u r creating impression safety razor shave is easy n risk free..no cuts 😂 hope it's true for first timers otherwise too much blood bath in bathroom for newbies 😂

A perfect shave, still doing it after all these years.

Great products and a great shave. Parker has some outstanding razors!
I own this one and it’s my favorite. Open comb is superior when you have long hair that needs to be shaved. As opposed to a milder closed comb.
Nice quick two passes shave ! Good job Geo
I remember when I first got that safety razor for Christmas last year from my parents.

I want too see Geofatboy of that bike and see him on Ghost Rider Bike 😁 Nice Video Geo 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Great shave Geo! Proraso white is perfect for sensitive skin.
Great video, thank you very mutch. 👌
Great shave 🪒

Wish i knew this from my dad! Thanks
Awesome tips !!!
shave using cold water if you have sensitive skin makes a big difference with cartridge. less razor burns
Nice shave
What’s your go-to safety razor Geo? Most recommended, no brainer favourite? You’ve taught me so much on wet shaving and helped me love shaving ❤️
You should know! MUHLE R89 Twist! Gotta get the twist.
His Feather blade, ( Gillette Platinum for me)
I know he likes the Muhle R41, too.
He did a video about it

Which other safety razors are excellent for sensitive skin?

I can never get the lather you get and I use the same product. Any tips? I love the Shave Nation bowls but they are too much for me right now.
So is open comb better?
Bro please tell 26c or 24c which one is better.. thinking to get one..
Hi Geo,
I use the green tube of proraso and I have a bad shave. Is the white way better?
Looks like those Parker Blades struggled a bit on your more resistant areas. Nice looking razor, though.😅😊
Remember to wash your face and moisturise it on the days you're not shaving too, so your skin is soft as your beard grows back
Don't we all wash our faces first thing upon waking in the morning? I do-with COLD water!

What type of ring are you wearing? @geofatboy
I didn't think open-comb DE razors were mild.
I think it's the same razor as the 69cr
Awesome!

👍
The brush and the bowl are just for showing off!
IT FEELS NICE
Why do we need to know the length of the razor? Who cares?
