Hello Everyone,

I didn't shave yesterday as I was pretty nicely cut up from my first two shaves and I was advised by Paul to maybe give it a break for a day or two to heal a bit.

Anyway I have been using Henri et Victoria Cognac & Cuban Cigars but my new Rocky Mountain Sandalwood came yesterday and I couldn't wait to try it so had my third shave this morning.

I decided to man up and shave like I meant it instead of being so scared that the blade skipped down my face and made me bleed a lot.

What a difference. I shaved like I meant it today and although I did get a war wound it was only one and I feel like I have had a half decent shave.

I do have some problems though.

I use my left hand on the left side of my face and it goes really well, never a cut.

Although I am right handed, when I do the right side with my right hand it feels really awkward and all my cuts have been on the right side.

I find it hard to shave down my neck, it's easier to shave upwards but my neck grows sideways and I just know I will bleed a lot if I try to shave my neck sideways.

I did 2 passes and although my neck is not cut it is kind of grazed as if I shaved my skin off.

Any idea whats going wrong?

Last question. I can't get the smell of the soap out if my brush so changing to a different soap is not as nice as it should be.
