Ok I want to try the DE razors. Someone point me in the right direction. (Website)(razors)(shave cream or oil)(brush, cup) and whatever else I would need in my situation.
I have a very sensitive neck. I have thick dark whiskers. I only shave about 3 times a week because of the razor burn.
And I only shave in the shower. I've got a nice big shower with plenty of room and it is much more convenient for me.

Feather lite blades, meckur razor, and brush depends on your financial situation. I use a boar brush because it's thicker and I feel it helps "pull" the hairs up away from the skin. Shave soap is the most personal choice. A good starter one is prasco (spelling?) Then go from there. You want regret it. When you first start go slow and get used to the angles but before you know it you'll be slinging it around like a safety razor.

Go to Walgreens or Target and get one of these LINK and a tube of this LINK and see how you like it. cost you less than $25 to get started and the sky is the limit from there.

I would not use a brush and mug in the shower but that is just me.

I got into DE razors bc of the long shaving thread on this forum. I'd had it with razor burn.

Picked up Edwin jagger handle and boar brush (there are different levels of these so just read about them). Astra and Feather platinum blades, and Taylor of Old Bond Street Almond scent cream. The cream costs me like $17 and I just started a new can today after 8 months on the first one. I spent bout 10-15 in blades and am set for over a year as I use 1 blade per week

Bought everything on Amazon.

Edit: I did pick up a small thing of aftershave lotion by Dove from Walmart. Shave 3x per week and haven't had razor burn in 8 months.
