    I've started using two hands myself on some approaches. I will already be using the off hand to stretch the skin, but sometimes, I'll use it to stabilize the end of the blade and help push slightly (somewhat like in whittling). Other times, especially when shaving my chin, I'll choke up on the blade and pivot my primary hand directly off the other hand for more control. The neat thing about straight-shaving is that you can experiment with different techniques in order to find those that work the best.
