Broken hand = blessing in disguise!
To make a long and embarrassing story short….
I took out my aggression on a plastic trash can of all things and broke the base of my pinky finger, the base of the 5th Metacarpal to be exact, on my right(dominate) hand this past Thursday evening. Turns out those trash cans do fight back!
I was very bummed, as I am still a noob with straight razor shaving, I got a new Tony Miller New Artisan 3” red Latigo. As well as two restores from Brad(Undream) on the way.
So I’m in a short cast and have full mobility of my fingers, but the wrist is immobilized. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
I’m still working on stropping technique, so this definitely helps with the not turning the wrist rule. It is also giving me practice with my left hand.
Has anybody had any similar experiences with a broken appendage and how it affects their shaving?
