Thread: My first straight shave at home, wish me luck guys!

My first shave will be today, I've been excited about it.

Koken razor, VDH badger brush , mug, soap, pure witch hazel & clubman reserve!

Ive done one my research & here it goes

Good luck!

You are off to a good start!

Good luck! But take it slow, especially with a spike point razor.. Don't try to shave yourself entirely if it's your first ever shave. But like I said, good luck and have fun

Good luck brother, that's a nice photo, have a shave and post it in the Shave of the Day, and mark it your first shave ever!!!

PANLEE,

Indeed wishing you a comfortable and good shave. Couldn't tell what you might or might not have read or watched here on SRP, but in my signature line below are a couple of links that can certainly help with what to expect from the shave and some excellent tips on technique, prep, etc.. One is an article and the Shave Test is a short video. Worth a look!!



Best Regards,

Howard

Nice setup, and a beautiful blade! Take your time and really enjoy your first shave. You will love it. And the many many more to follow it.

Good luck and has been said care with the spike point is a strong recommendation.

Seconds before I started, brush in hand...... Our neighborhood postal carrier showed up, trying to put a package over the fence while battling my dog. I was very glad I came outside.

My RazoRock brain freeze arrived. It was meant to be lol.

Good luck!
