ok so ive been dealing with this sh*t since my late 20s and im talking YEARS of trying everything. literally everything. gillette fusion? made it worse. mach 3? worse. bought a braun series 7 electric for like £150 thinking that would solve it - nope just left stubble and my wife still hated it. tried magic shave powder from the shop, that stuff BURNED like actual fire and smelled awful.
then i got into the whole reddit wet shaving thing right, spent hours reading about safety razors and grain mapping and all that. bought a DE razor, fancy shaving soap, even drew on my face with a dry erase marker to map my grain (looked mental doing that lol). helped a tiny bit but my lower neck where the hair swirls? still looked like pizza.
had a job interview coming up for a senior position and i just could not show up looking like i had some kind of disease you know? thats what it looks like to normal people - not a bad shave but like a skin condition.
saw an ad for rhoms, was super skeptical because ive fallen for the "revolutionary" marketing bs before. but the ad had guys talking about the exact same problems so i thought whatever one more try.
first time using it - feels cooling when you put it on, kind of soothing actually. within a week i noticed i could shave closer without the bumps coming back. by week 2 my neck looked actually respectable.
its not perfect - i still get a bump here and there if i go against the grain like an idiot. but "manageable" is SO much better than "cursed"
ended up getting their razor and shaving cream too since the whole system is designed to work together. wish id done that from the start honestly.
cons:
- bottle is smaller than id like, goes quick if you use it every day
- it sells out alot and i check the site like every week to make sure i can get more because i never want to run out
if youve been dealing with this for years and nothing has worked this is worth it. just dont expect miracles overnight but youll see improvement pretty quick.
