Well I have had my Striaght for a few months and tonight finally tried it out. I am using mama bears ye old barbershop soap with some glycerin. Hot shower first the on to the fun. Well I noticed while shaving I am not getting a smooth glide like there is no cushion. We have really hard water out here in Vegas. The razor was shave ready (Thanks Max), but nothing seemed smooth I tried to add more lather and still nothing. I do not have heavy wiskers, it just seemed as if my face was creating a lot of friction. Got through the shave WTG and needed more so I tried XTG and it did not seem to do much. So I went for ATG a little smoother but still the same problem. Alright lets hear what might be happening. I tried to maintain the proper angles also.
Thanks
Coy
