Konnichiwa!

Welcome to DFS. I hope to learn lots about the wet shaving scene in Japan. As for the weepers, the alum block is your friend while you work your way up to ATG passes. Give it time, and alum and you’ll be fine.

Thank you, Mark. Today's weepers were mostly the result of my switching from a rounded tip to a square tip. That square tip caught me a few times!
However I am enjoying the process and getting some smooth shaves. I was in Hawaii on business recently and could not find a high street retailer for
an alum block but I grabbed a potassium alum antiperspirant and deodorant stick at Whole Foods that fit the bill. It even came in a nice case holder.

I use that for deodorant but I like to use a block on my face.

Welcome.

Great to have you aboard!
