Had my second straight razor shave tonight. Did both sideburns and cheeks and my entire neck, but stayed away from my upper lip and chin. Finished up with the DE and a Feather blade.
Starting to get a better feel for the blade, but I think I may be using to large an angle as I am getting some areas of irritation.
Definitely fun though. Tomorrow is my day off from shaving and Tuesday I won't have enough time to use the straight, so my next attempt will be Wednesday. I will keep you posted.
Thanks to everyone for your help and encouragement.
