Thread: Just one small problem!

OK, so I have straight shaved three times now, and while it's not a perfect shave, I'm happy with the results so far. However, there is one consistent problem I'm having- my top lip. Each time I have cut it- using my right hand, I have cut some part of the left side of my upper lip each time. The youtube videos I have watched have all mentioned that it is one of the hard areas to do.

Any advice??

I'm still getting used to it myself, but generally when I get to that area I roll my lip down and pull on my cheek a little bit to stretch the skin as much as is comfortable. Then I very slowly shave.

If you've got a cut in the area, then you might want to give your face a day or so to recover. Generally if I cut myself in an area I'm likely to aggrivate it the next time I shave.
