Thread: My First Straight Razor Shave

Hi Alltracturbo;

I just finished my 3rd full shave this morning, and it keeps getting better with each try. As Del1r1um said, confidence can be a factor with a lightsaber-sharp razor to your face, but I notice that gets easier with each shave. The brush and soaps will help lots, too. What about your shave prep? I shower first, then go for a hot towel on the face before lathering up - that seems to make a difference on the tough areas for me. Also, I don't lather my whole face at once - I'm slow, so the soap dries before I can get to the other side of my face. I just wet/lather in parts until I get better.

Good luck!
