I had to try this.
I had to start at a new school a couple of months ago because the last one I went too went bankrupt. At this school we have to be clean shaved at all times and I guess the same would go for the rest of my career.
All the different shaving methods I have tried so far has been kind of hard to my skin, if I shave two days in a row, it feels like someone lit my face on fire. It goes for electric and disposable. I guess it is because I try to get a really close shave and overdo it.
One and a half years ago I was in India for three months and could actually afford to go to the barber quite a lot. The straight razor shaves was amazing! So now I am trying this out and hope to be able to achieve the same results by my self.
This is what I have ordered:
DOVO Best Value Ivory Yellow Straight Razor 5/8"" Full Hollow Ground
Standard Pure Badger Shave Brush Off White Handle
Styptic Pencil
Shave Soap
DOVO German Razor Strop Leather Conditioner
Illinois Razor Strop 2"" x 20"" Top Grain Cowhide with Handle
Thiers Issard Low Grease White Paste for Razor Strop (for canvas side?)
Col Conk glycerine shave soap
And I am thinking about ordering a 4000/8000 Norton
Does this sound like a good start?
