Thread: First shave. Any Advice?

Thanks for the replies.. thinking I used too much pressure, not pulling skin tight enough and was at the wrong angle. I am seeing that it takes a bit of practice..

Try and use a light touch and not go over the same area many times. This can induce irritation.

Also make sure your face is wet (as you may be a little slow to begin with)

Most of all, enjoy it.

The only thing I would add is it's mostly a matter of persisting day by day, shave by shave. The learning curve for straight razor shaving is measured in months and not days. Just keep shaving!
