DE shaving is just so much fun. You certainly should get into the mindset the day before you shave like Sawsheezle has said. It's kinda a chore, but a fun one. Takes some time too. I average around 20 minutes. I like to make 3 passes over my face. First one down, second one down to get any stragglers, then the third in different directions depending on spots where I know the grain grows differently.
Today was my third shave with these. The first went pretty well. Getting the soap to lather was definitely the hardest part. It just didn't seem to want to lather. I believe I wasn't getting enough water. The second time went better. Again, lathering being the issue. Too much water this time maybe. But this third one was amazing. Almost baby butt smooth. Not sure whether to attribute it to increasingly better techniques or to the razor blades that Sawsheezle let me have to test out. Either way it was awesome.
I had a plan for this post going into it, but it kinda fell apart. My second post will be much concise and logical.
Glad to hear it went well! Keep on it!
