Thanked: 0First Straight in Colorado
Couldn't resist that title...
Intended to only do top-half dominate cheek per instructions. But it went so well just kept going. The left hand was, well, frankly pretty scary, so I did a crossover with a decent hokey-pokey thrown in. didn't get too aggressive around the lips and nose. Only a couple minor scrapes.
Here in the dry high altitude keeping the lather moist was a small challenge. Using Tabac hard soap with a new badger. MUCH better than the cheap old bristle brush and soap I was using for several years along with the old blade whatever kind it was...
The mental aspect of having an ultra sharp blade hovering over the neck was a real trip. Some controlled breathing and careful use got the heart rate down below 150 again and the nerves steadied.
This was a lot more fun than I imagined. I took my time and cleaned up with the old disposable Mach 2 or 3. Already looking forward to tomorrow...
