Chopped myself up after a shower
I've been using a little shavette with derby blades -- bought here -- for a couple of weeks now, and things have been going ok. I still haven't managed a full shave without cutting myself, but things have been improving shave-by-shave. A few days ago I was brave enough to try a three pass shave, and it was (almost) perfect! As smooth as a baby's butt :)
Just yesterday I tried again, but this time I shaved right after a shower. This was the first time I'd showered immediately before, and I really carved myself up! It was kinda embarrassing: lots of razor burn on my neck, and 8-10 cuts on my chin, neck and cheeks. My wife couldn't stop laughing at me :D
Can anyone suggest why this would have happened? Was it anything to do with the shower before-hand, or was it just clumsiness?
