Thread: Both hands shaving necessary?

It's entirely up to the individual. I have tried using my off hand a few times, but found it pretty uncomfortable and so have never pursued it. I imagine my problem is that I shaved with my right hand only for several years before even hearing of anyone using both hands, so I was already a bit set in my ways when I tried it.

But in general, I imagine it would be a useful skill to have. And I think you're considering trying it at the perfect time: nice and early in your straight shaving experience. But with everything, take it slow, watch your angles, and keep your pressure nice and light. Maybe I'll try it again one of these days...

Good luck!
