Well, I just finished my first shave
Just two minor nicks, nothing ugly. I have to confess, I ignored some advice and didn't stop at my left cheek. Maybe it was because I felt that with each pass, I was getting my technique a bit better (you know that newbie feeling heheh). However, I think all went pretty good based on the fact that I had never shaved with a straight before.
The shave? Well, of course I'm far away from a BBS shave, but it's not that bad (still nothing I would brag about, though). My skin was a bit irritated but I've read that it's normal, as my skin is getting used to the new shaving method. It's already getting better actually.
Overall, I'm really happy. Can't wait for my next shave.
PS. What would you recommend? Shave tomorrow or let a couple of days pass?
