    Default Give it time!!!

    Well, I have started to str8 Razor shave back in Late December of last Year. I started with a non-shaving Tomahawk Razor, Then I got 2 Wapi Razors. It was hard at first to get a nick free BBS shave. I now brake down my shaves to areas.

    I start with the neck area first doing 2 shaves, First WTG then ATG. Doing one side of the neck then the other. I still have very small places of stubble left, but still better then my mok3. I then move to the cheek area doing it the same way But adding XTG. Now this works for me because I'm going way slower then when I first started. I then go and do the chin & upper lip last.

    In between all the shaves I rinsed with warm water that is sitting in the sink that keeps my bowl of lather warm, then re-lather the spots I'm working on till I get a BBS area. This was the best so far. It took me 45 minutes for a full shave and was well worth it.

    So if Your just starting to use a str8 Razor to shave with. Give It Time!!! Go slowly work in small area at a time. You owe it to yourself to try and get the best shave around. Remember Speed Kills when shaving with a Str8 razor sharp piece of metal. These aren't your everyday Bic, mok3 or what ever razors you pick up in the local stores.


    *Note: My way may not work that well for you, but you may find that it does. Find the way You like and You'll get a BBS Shave when You Give It Time!!!..
