An Albertans Firts REAL Shave

[Phill The Thrill]

Its been a long time coming. But i finally had my first Straight Razor Shave yesterday.

After gathering all my materials, I finally had my razor shave ready.

I started with the soap, not the best I am afraid. My ability to develop a good lather needs much work, but I got there,

the shaving went pretty well. A small nick below my nose, and an even smaller one near my temple, and a little razor brun on the neck.

I know the shave can be much better than this, but i am pleased with the results, and I am very much looking forward to putting in the practice to get GREAT at shaving with the straight.

I was not nearly as nervous as expected, but I have had plenty of time to prepare for the final event.

Thanks for all the support, couldnt have done it with out the help of the fine folks on SRP.


I will get pictures of all my gear up here eventually.
