I thought it was the poor razor and was hoping the straight would help.
My face, especially my throat feels sore and I tend to break out in spots around the crease in my neck which make it very hard to shave without making a big mess.
Even brushing soap on my throat after a couple of days is sore, so I gave up on it for now.
