    welcome to srp. it sounds like a combo of angle and pressure and your face adjusting to the str8 give it a rest for a day or two and try again hold the razor flat against your face slowly increasing your angle until you hit the sweet spot

    Man thanks again, I'll definitely give my pressure and angle some tweaking, and work on my strop technique(hopefully no major damage was done).

    I'm not discouraged, painful or not it's still fun, although I feel like this would have taken me many painful years without the assistance of this forum


    Oh and to bman40, look under the general forum there should be a sub-forum called videos, that's where the xman one handed shaving video is hiding
