My advice to “Newbies”
There is a lot of great information on this site about shaving technique, honing, stropping with and without paste and choosing the right razor etc.
One thing I we don’t talk about a lot is the shaving environment. With an electric, multiple blade or DE razor you can get a “shave” (of sorts) almost in the dark, with a little mirror all steamed up.
I have recently renovated out second bathroom, which gave me a good excuse to turn it into a shaving den. So I got myself some really good lighting and a really good big anti mist mirror.
I made sure the sink was the right type so I could get nice and close to the mirror so I could really see what I was doing close up.
Doing this and using a decent pre-honed razor really improved my shaving no end and of course improved my shaving technique tremendously.
