Thread: My first attempt at SR shaving

Your doing just fine, it is after all just your ninth partial shave. Short of having someone watch and help you, all you can do is experiment a little with pre-shave prep, lather, angles, pressure, etc. just don't try too many new things at once or you won't know what made the difference.

Just keep practicing and you will get it and your face will get accustomed to the straight.

Soon things that didn't work well, will and with no real explanation as to why, they just will.

All is well, your doing good. It will soon be very easy for you but it will take some time. Give yourself a couple months with every day shaves. Soon you'll wonder why it was difficult in the beginning when you first started with the straight.

Most of all, just enjoy the experiance.
