I don’t see how it’s weird to learn how to shave properly, especially since doing it wrong can seriously butcher your face with nasty cuts & scars. Yeah, if he was shaving in a Speedo bathing suit & flashing his body to the camera, I agree that would be weird. Tell your wife to chill… GeoFatboy is a cool bro & far from being weird in the least.

@@billjohnsonseattle yeah!! Plus....if your thinking of spending a lot of cash on a razor it's good to watch it in use and have an outside opinion of what the razor is like before you buy it. I own 28 razors and have watched guys many times using the certain razor I'm after before I buy it. Dave.

I have watched many shave demonstrations on youtube. Some of them like Nick are excellent. Geofatboy's demonstration on how to shave with a DE here is the best single video of its kind I have ever seen. Regardless of the razor he uses, the blade, the cream. You want to improve your technique? Watch this dude a couple times.

I use this razor for the first time this morning with a feather blade on setting 5. It's one of the best shows I've ever had. I'm so glad I purchased this razor. I actually got a better shave then I did with my Muhle R41. No nicks or weepers whatsoever. I love this razor.

Mine has slightly uneven gap, however, it doesn't affect the shaving. Same aggression on both sides. After shaving with the 34c for over 10 years, and always getting burns on the last pass, the Variant was a pleasure to use. I usually do 3-2-1 for irritation free shave.

Hi Geo I have been wet shaving for about 2 years. I have a lot of different soaps which I like but so far I have only bought one razor, the Vikings Blade chieftain. I really like that razor but decided it was time to try a new razor. I have been back and forth between a few different ones but decided on the Parker Variant. I loved your review video as well as all your videos and I will be ordering it from Shave Nation later today. Thanks for all you do. I'm glad I was able to buy this from you and not from someone else. Keep up the good work

I have been following most of your shaving videos since the time i swicthed from Catridge Razor to Safety Razor and your channel is best on RU-vid for shaving videos. I am using Parker adjustable and do 2 passes (with and across grain) for my shave. I would like to know if want a quick shave sometime then can we just go with single pass of across the grain directly with number 5 setting when have a week's beard growth?

Just had my second shave with the varient and have to say it’s given me probably the best shave I’ve ever had. The first was ok but not as great because I left the razor on #3 for the first pass and #2.5 for the next subsequent 2 passes which did give me some irritation on the neck. Today I did first pass on #3 second pass on #2 and final against the grain pass on #1 and wow bbs smooth and little to no cuts or irritation. Used proraso green and the razor glided across skin no problem. Def my new fav. The adjustability is great

Great video! Haven't used an adjustable razor but thinking of purchasing one to try different settings depending on the beard length and the Parker Variant seems a great choice. However I am a bit concerned that they come with a bigger head than OC/CC razors and that might be a problem when shaving under the nose (always having difficulty cleaning that area!). Did you have such issues with Parker or other adjustable razors?

I think it is a good point, that when you don't have time in the morning for a three pass shave baby butt shave, I've done plenty one and two pass shaves. I heard so many comments "if I had that much time", well in real life you adapt. If your face isn't worth an extra five minutes, stick with cartridge or electric shaving. Let's see how your face looks in 10 years. Just sayin... I picked one of these up for Christmas, saw you had a review. Nice. Thanks!

Thanks for the video Geo. Nice! This is definitely a razor that I am looking into buying, as my first adjustable. Your comments convinced me, but your shaving method surprised me. I would expect you to go from less to more aggressive setting, and not the other way around. I would expect to have to use a more aggressive setting to shave off the details and that a lower setting would not be capable to deal with it. Am I missing something here? Thanks!
@troubauk
@troubauk 4 года назад
I guess the defining factor is direction of cut Along the grain > Across the grain > Against the grain So an aggressive along t-g will still be milder than a mild against t-g

I've been looking at your videos and it's making wonder about starting shaving again after 40 years of having a beard. I stopped shaving because whenever I gave myself a close shave, neck hairs and under chin hairs would grow back under my skin and cause lumps when I would have to use a pin to pull out the hairs! What was I doing wrong?

@@geofatboy The trouble is that I've tried a few times over the years and I still got hairs growing back under my skin! I thought I must have been doing things wrong or perhaps it's a known condition, I don't know. I have never actually used a safety razor though so might be worth a try.
@borbetomagus
@borbetomagus 7 лет назад
Nice video. I hope many new wet-shavers consider this safety razor as their first given the variety of settings. What modern adjustable razor would you compare the Parker Variant set at '5' to? Merkur Progress? Merkur Futur? Merkur Vision? If set at '5' does it shave as close (or closer) than a Mühle R41? (Some have claimed it does, but smoother.) Thanks for your demonstration.
@geofatboy
@geofatboy 7 лет назад
It is similar in function to the Merkur Progress, but has a different finish and a metal adjustment knob as opposed to plastic. Nearly as aggressive as the Mühle R41-but smoother shaving. I usually recommend non-adjustables to newcomers but this one is an exception.
@borbetomagus
@borbetomagus 7 лет назад
I already have a Merkur Progress, but was hoping for something similar in aggressiveness to the iKon Tech, but not as harsh. Care to do a video on the iKon Tech -- and how to tame it -- for the shaving masochists out there? It definitely needs a user manual for getting a smooth, comfortable shave (with little risk of razor burn). I don't know if it's possible -- or I just need leather skin! Otherwise, I'll just have to live with my Mühle R41. Thanks!
@geofatboy
@geofatboy 7 лет назад
I need to get some new pics of the iKon Tech up on the site-shavenation.com/search?q=iKon+tech It looks like a mild little shaver. I'll take it for a shave and see how it goes.

How does this compare to the Merkur Progress? I have the Merkur and it has become my favorite.

Hi Vance, The Merkur Progress is a fantastic razor and has passed the test of time. We haven't had a return or complaint on one in the 7 years that we've been selling them. shavenation.com/search?q=merkur+progress I prefer the long handle model myself. FYI-The Variant has had a few quality control issues that they are trying to get worked out, that's why it's currently unavailable.

Thanks for the reply. I have the long handle Progress. It is a very good razor.

Hello! Greetings from S.Korea. I'm on the fence about Parker Variant and Rockwell 6C(or 6S) as next level of basic razor. As moving from 1st pass to 3 pass, it needs to adjust the agressiveness level(ex, 3 to 1). Then, the interchangeable Rockwell 6S(C) can be a bit hassle? Parker Variant needs not to interchange plate side. But many shavers like Rockwell regardless this handicap. Which can you recommend for me for just and final one choice, Parker Variant or Rockwell 6 S(C)?

Did you buy one of those? I'm almost sure to buy Parker variant, but I'm searching for more opinions. Hope you found good razor!

dyey Recently, I decided to Rockwell 6C gunmetal and have been satisfied with it. This week, I’m waiting my gillette slim adjustable and fatboy from ebay. 😅 Thank you for your concern.

Will this be able to shave leaving behind a 1 or 1.5mm hair say if used at the lowers setting? I am trying to find way to achieve that with safety razors

You will need to use a clipper set on zero or one to accomplish that: shavenation.com/collections/clippers-trimmers
