I've now completed my 3rd shave without to much drama, a few nicks but cleared up instantly with the Alum block so I think it's safe to say I'm making progress.

My question is does anyone know if the skin becomes used to straight razor shaving and the razor burn becomes less of an issue, and if so roughly how Long does it take? I know everyone's skin is different but I was wondering about others experiences.

Ive shaved for three days in a row now and plan on using the SR everyday to get as much experience as possible to get to the point where I'm really comfortable. Maybe I'm overdoing it but I'm hooked. This is costing me a small fortune and I can see it's only going to get worse. Ouch
