Thread: Not having much luck on my own

I am drawn to the straight because of several things: its lack of a need to buy anything further once I have the straight, strop and hone as well as shaving the same way men have done for centuries; my double edge has a real problem getting right under the nose and cartridge razors are even worse at that, my straight is the only blade that can acomplish that feat.

The troubble is that I am not having much luck learning the art on my own even with reading the posts on this forum. Are there any sites out there that can show me a movie of how to acomplish this task? Perhaps on youtube?

THere are videos on all of it here in the SRP Wiki.

Why don't you ask your shvaing teacher?

Are you looking for videos of just the lip area or the entire shave?

Although it covers a broad range of topics, I'd suggest this DVD as well.
