Thanked: 0First couple of shaves
Bought a Dovo best + Badger brush + Mama Bears Glycerin Soap + Red Tiago strop. First couple of shaves have gone well. Still trying to get a feel for two handed versus single handed cross. Little bit of scraping + a few nicks, but nothing terrible. I'd say successful thus far.
Big question. With my fusion I went with grain and then against it and got a smooth shave. I have not attempted against the grain with the staright yet. Instead I pull the fusion out to do a thorough job on the chin and to finish off the neck and cheeks.
Now for the big question......Do most of you get a close enough shave strictly with the grain or are you following up against the grain?
