My left hand is very awkward. Just dominant for now.... I will work on the left someday
I was hanging off some iron one day on the job nailing some false work together and a guy asked me if I was ambidextrous. I said no why ? He said most good carpenters are. I thought for a second he was trying to piss me off and realized I had the hammer in the wrong hand. I was more worried about falling than which hand I was supposed to be using. Developed into a habit of refining my dexterity in that hand.
I can pick my nose with both hands now :<0)
A little bit of brail shaving is required i think if only 1 handed but not full brail shaving thats just asking for trouble LOL
I'm a right hand only lad too.
the left just feels to gumby when I have tried the few times, now I have it down to a fairly quick shave can't bare to go back again LOL
I have been shaving ambidexterously almost from day one as I recall. That amounts to about 46 years. I don't really give it much thought. I just shave.............:beer2:
I use both hands, but probably 80% dominant hand on my face. On my head it's equal between left and right hands.

Gentlemen,
I have switched hands from the first day, using both hands about equally, and I could not be happier.
I have only in the last few shaves put any more than almost no effort into getting my right hand doing some of the work, i do get a better shave from it on the right side of my neck, but it is pretty slow and i have dificulty translating what i see in the mirror to my hand, the angles go all weird.
Didn't take too long to learn on the lefty,it wasn't all that difficult. I can't imagine trying to shave strictly right handed anymore.
