Thread: My first shave!

I've just shaved me with a SR for the first time. This morning I got out of bed 30 min. sooner just in case, because I wanted to take my time. Prior to my shave, I had a shower and washed my face with glycerin soap. I used La Toja shaving cream with a 25$ (20€) brush and my new (prehoned) Dovo Spike point.

Now I see that my 3 months shavette experience (and watching tutorials, reading wikis and asking wise people) were very useful, because I had NOT A SINGLE CUT, ladies and gentlemen. In my opinion the shavette is far more dangerous, I used to have at least a few blood spots almost every shave.

I made two passes, one WTG, and the next one I shaved ATG my cheeks, jawline and my neck, and XTG my chin. I'm sporting a cool stache these days, so I saved this area. I only use my right hand, but I manage to switch the angles and positions to cover all my face, the X-man tutorial on Youtube was very useful!. At the first pass I thought it wasn't cutting too much, (I didn't want to use much pressure either) but after the second pass my face was perfect! The a litlle of Nivea after shave and I'm ready to work; no cuts, blood spots or burning. At least as close that with the shavette, though I'm sure it will get even closer with practise.

I don't want to be too self-confident, because I'm sure that I will get cut sooner or later, but I can't help feeling proud of my first time. Thanks everybody for the helping, greetings from Spain, amigos!
