Hey all!

I just had my first straight razor shave this morning. My lather was pitiful, but luckily I was only shaving my right side-burn and didn't have to worry too much about that. The razor was tugging at the hairs at first, but I'm pretty sure that's because I was shaving at 45 degrees. Once I flattened out the razor a bit, things went more smoothly.

Overall, I think it went pretty well. I didn't get any cuts, so I've got that going for me! Now, I'm just looking forward to tomorrow so that I can try my hand at this again! Any advice is welcome!
