An experience I have to share with everyone!

[mikedelo]

I have been shaving with a straight blade since July of this year. I still consider myself a newbie.

After buying a razor in the classifieds section, I thought it needed a good honing. At the advice of the people that work for The Art of Shaving, I brought it to a place in NYC to get it professionally sharpened. When I got it back, it was in HORRIBLE condition! Thanks to nun2sharp the razor was saved!

Yesterday, while I was Christmas shopping, I stopped into The Art of Shaving. I really do not like shopping in there because they know nothing about shaving - I was being impatient. It is all bells and whistles. But I wanted to try using shaving soap and brush. So this morning I lathered up and got the closest shave I ever had! I still have to practice my technique with my chin area but everything else feel SOOOO soft.

I can't stop touching my face!!

Thanks everyone for all your help!!
