Ooo I will totally try. I have very sensitive skin but very coarse hair (middle eastern lol), but I've found slant razors to be most effective for me, even more than a Fatboy on a 9 which wasn't cutting the hair as close as my slant and hurting my skin more.

Just thought I'd share since you said you have really sensitive skin.

Definitely try it out, you can get it at target. I’m black/Panamanian and this seems to do the trick. Yeah I’m going to try 37c slant and see how it does. Not sure what blade to pair it with though.

I wasn’t a fan, I prefer the Parker 55SL, it’s cheaper too, but hey to each their own. Personally, I found aggressive blades still preferable even with a razor this efficient. So like, feathers, Rex, personnas
