    That's why we're here bud.
    Do you try to achieve BBS on every shave? May take some time for your skin to adapt to the STR8 on ATG passes. WIll take time.

    Yes, I try for the BBS each time. Guess that's too much? With the inquires by so many newbies into just this issue, somebody needs to do some research and writing into the science of skin and it's adaptation to str8 shaving. I'm sure most guys don't give a darn but I'm sure I'm not the only one who's curious. Thanks for the input.

    I find that every third shave I can try for the BBS. I have been at it for about 3 months now. My skin is getting better, but more-so my technique. An overlooked obstacle is the lather, pay attention to that, it really does protect the skin! I think all skin types are different when attempting BBS. I have also noticed that the razors edge and hair growth play a huge role in straight shaving as well.
