    I’m very glad men can come together somewhere on YouTube and talk hygiene and just talk about manly issues 💈😁✌️💈
  • Geo, I went from using a terrible Gillette Fusion to a safety razor about 3 years ago when I found this channel. Bought a Muhle R89 with some Feather blades and Proraso products and couldn't be happier. My shave routine completely changed, my skin feels much fresher and smoother with a safety razor than those gimmicky razors with the 5 blades and aloe vera strip. Keep up the good work man, love these videos.

    "Clean the lips, little thumb swipe, clear the runways" What a guy! A good testimony for the Rose shave cream as well as the razors.
  • @TallysVids
    Love the R41. Demands respect, but rewards with the closest shave you can get.
  • @fou-dou
    I own both. R89 is very good, but R41 is perfect for sensitive skin and especially for anyone who shaves once a week.
  • @Smootus
    Love your comment, “ let the weight of the razor do the work for you” ...... I think that’s true with all aggressive razors.
  • Just starting with my R89, awesome results. I'll stick to it a few months, then im upgrading to R41 for a closest shave. I love the aftershave moment. Thanks for the video!
  • @Gowntlet
    Three years ago, I practiced shaving while watching the video of geo, you. It is good to see you, geo standing on the pulpit and lecturing shaving videos often these days.
  • The R41 is not a beginner's razor. If you have some experience then go for it. Take your time, and let the razor do the work. The shave is worth it. Closest I have had from a safety razor.
  • @Juraberg
    Interesting comparison shave. I totally agree that MÜHLE is of flawless quality. I love my Mühle R108.
  • The R41 is bad ass, I love only doing two passes and get baby smooth. I use it everyday but you do have to be careful not to press too hard, respect the beast!
  • Thanks for your tips, especially about the difference between scraping and just catching the hair when shaving against the grain. I have tried getting close shave but due to high angle it always turned out to be an irritating shave, I am getting better results now. Thanks again.
  • @andrewp7497
    Just got the R41 and as you say it's much less forgiving. 3 cuts... but a close shave, nice. More of what I am used to using the old Mach 3!
  • @StrongmanChalky
    Great video; funny how it appeared as a recommended video for me tonight, I just a couple of hours ago bought an R41 head! Been using an R89 for a couple of years with Feathers and just fancied trying out a more aggressive head. Always enjoy your vids Geo, cheers!
  • @rajansharmaadv
    I use my Merkur 37c every day, and seven days a week and love it.
  • @yaBoyDreamer
    takes dedication to shave for a demo. kudos to you, buddy!
  • @UhrenErich
    I love my R41 with a Feather or Personna blade
  • @mikeh9701
    Hi Geo- Great shave and comparison video; thank you! After three years of DE shaving, I still haven’t taken the plunge with the R41. Your advice and guidance in this video has been a great help towards using this razor! Enjoy the rest of the weekend and all the best!
  • Thanks for using metric system ;). I own a R89, very efficient over short beard - as you said, good for everyday, but lacking of skills over a longer beard -say three to for days. Even with feather blades. So I was considering buying a R41 head as I don't always shave daily. You convinced me.
