    Talking I'm Hooked

    I just shaved my fifth time and it was great. I didn't have any burning, pulling, or cuts, and I was able to use both my right and left hands without a problem. I know it's not a race but I've been able to shave my entire face consistently under 35 minutes. I know that I'm a noob to all of this but I'm going with the sink or swim from here on out, I threw my other razor in the trash. It's straights only from here on.

    Oh yeah I just bought a second straight so I do have a real secondary razor just in case.

    Way to go!
    You seem to be getting the hang of this wet shaving thing really fast.
    And the Best news is, it will get even better in due time!
    Good luck on your continued venture of proper shaving!

    That's right. Hold that line as tightly as you can and the time will work itself out in the end. Nice progress!
