Hey everyone. I decided to pick up using a straight razor about 3 weeks ago -- and I've been welcomed! I've gotten my fair share of nicks and cuts! I originally just started out doing my sideburns and cheeks, as I read to go into it chunk by chunk to not make your face and neck get cut up. I did my neck for the first time today, and I didn't cut myself, but I got very bad razor burn for some reason...I just found that odd I guess?
Is that normal? I use a hot lather machine for my shaving cream (I know you're supposed to use mug soap, but I don't know where to buy it? Any walgreen's or something?)
Just looking to get some feedback and just any advice in general on how to proceed forwards.
Thanks guys
