UPDATE: Target no longer sells Proraso. Palmolive no longer produces lather shaving cream (red tube).
Would you like a shave so good that you might consider it a pleasant hobby instead of a painful chore?

mantic, i know you're not partial to canned shaving cream, but can you recommend a brand that would be the most "wet shaver friendly"? i travel a lot, and i don't like to take my mug and soap with me, for fear my mug might get broken.

depending on where you are and what products may be available, look for Cremo-Cream, Anthony Logistics, Real Shaving Co. products. Of the widely-available drug store products, King Of Shaves gel is pretty good. At least get something out of a squeeze tube--nothing out of a pressurized can!

open comb razors are meant for really thick, multi-day (or week) beard growths; the comb "channels" thick hair towards the blade. Typically open comb razors are more aggressive than closed/safety bar razors.

mantic, if I primarily wet shave to trim my beard and only do so once or twice a week, would I be better served with an open-comb razor?

It's not about age, it's about your technique!

Age doesn't matter, it all has a learning curve! With a cartridge razor, you are asking for a razor burn and ingrown hairs, and all sorts of other irritation, being the several blades, crossing the same parts of the skin, way too many times...
