Welcome to SRP! Hope we can provide you some good advise to get started and as your technique improves.

First the hanging hair test is just that... only a test. Shaving is the real test of the razor.
Regarding honing, I agree with Utopian. You need to do a lot more reading on the honing forum.
Stropping 20 times is just a starter. I normally strop 60x on the linen and 60-100x on the leather.
