I need to think about this one...you may have a point. I don't think I'm increasing my pressure, but where I was using a DE to clean things up I'd missed on my chin, I started shaving those areas successfully using my straights. As I gained more confidence, I started wanting a closer shave, and I started going over areas numerous times...not really thinking of them as multiple passes. My chin is where I'm getting the nasty razor burn, and last week I had burn that I felt all day. I've gone back to shaving my chin and mustache area with a DE: the chin because of the burn and the upper lip because of the pulling.
I'm taking receipt today of a new DOVO Perlex honed by Lynn that I ordered from Vintage Blades, and I'll be shaving with it tomorrow. I hope to use it to determine if it's the dulling of the razors I already own or if it's just me shaving my face away with a sharp razor.
Thanks,
Trent
