Thread: Straight feels like its pulling hair out :(

If you have been using a feather then I would bet it's stropping technique. Stropping is the necessary evil that has a learning curve also. You may be able to bring your edge back if it was a stropping thing. Try to lay it on a table and make sure it stays flat. That takes some of the variables out of it. ( if your using a hanging strop)

Could also be a pressure thing with the razor. A straight is a little different feel than a feather.

your in the right place :<0)

Thanks for the suggestions!! So i should send them off to get the rolled edges fixed or can that be stropped back straight? I do have a barbers hone but if i cant strop probably shouldnt be honing

Would it be possible to tell if the edge is rolled from a picture?

I would suggest trying to strop first. If that doesn't work try the hone as if your sending them out anyway there is nothing to lose. Good luck.
