Hey guys, shave 6 went better and I covered all my face except the chin...only a small nick. My question though is about strop care. I bought an Illinois strop off the bay says "Russian Imperial" on the front so its the reverse side of the leather and canvas on the back. My question is, should I put anything on the strop in the way of dressing? I read in the old shaving book in another thread that they use to put lather on it....? What's others doing? I'm now officially addicted....Hi my name is Dave.....and I'm addicted to straights.
