Mach3 is what I was using when I switched. I always had ingrown hairs beneath my chin, and the irritations I endured when I shaved each time were nasty - some were because I sliced off ingrown hair bumps.

The Mach3 was a large part of the problem - in fact I believe it was the cause of the ingrowns. I also believe that the Mach3 was also a part of my irritation problem which had nothing to do with the ingrowns. How? As I would press hard to get it to work properly - and I didn't want to trade out the blades when I should because I wanted to get the most possible mileage out of them.

I haven't had an ingown hair since I started wetshaving. I had some irritation early on, but that stopped as I learned to keep the proper angle, and not to press down to hard,

I cannot suggest enough that you get yourself a beginning kit and head in this direction.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
