Thread: Another first shave down

I have only managed to get to my fifth shave with a straight as yet and cut myself only once per shave. Sometimes I can get away without a cut. The shaves are excellent but could use some work as the safety is helping out on the chin area, which is something less then perfect with the straight.

Very well done! The direction of growth on my face is
not always down as well, and I shave with the direction
of the growth. For me, this is upwards near the bottom
of my neck.

Good luck!

Thanks,

To be honest, I do not have any info on shaving heads. I cut mine down to a 1mm cut with clippers but never actually SHAVE my head. Anybody know if those yellow head-shavers work well?

Head hair is not as tough as beard hair so it takes an extra sharp blade. I would suggest trying a bunch of small strokes rather then any long passes. You may need to strop up a few times as the head is a large area to cover.

The yellow head blades work great. Dovo also sells a head blade if that is more your style.

Be sure to watch the ears...
