First week of straight razor shaving...

I was excited to recieve my first straight razor and begin the journey of straight razo shaving. I watched Lynn's video an noticed the different ways he. Held his razor. I took it slow and was able to finish w/o dwg blood. That was WTG only for the first few days. When I tried XTG I gave myself a Little nick om my cheek. All in all I am enjoying the whole experience but shaving is definitely taking more time... Prep, execution, and post time. I do appreciate all the sage advice on this forum, made it a lot safer experience.

A special thanks to SRD's for my shave ready blade...

Congratulations on a successful first week. Keep at it and, as with anything else, improvement will come with experience.

Congratulations its about the journey not the destination.. its a real learning curve but well worth it

Two things about the time it takes; with time u will get faster, when u need to. Second when your shaving this is your time no wife kids problems enjoy your time lol
