Result: 4.6/5.0 Shaves are getting easier. I'm getting a lot better with the ACD-N Razor and I've changed my prep routine a little. I'm using a facial wash in the shower for more than just the oil spots around my nose again and at the very end of my shower, I turn up the heat and let water just run on my neck and jawline for 45-60 seconds. The heat breaks down the cuticle and the water plumps up the hair. It's the closest I can get to a hot towel treatment but you have to be able to stand some heat.
