To begin, Hello my name is Joshua and I am 18 years old. For my Chanukkah gift my mother got me a straight razor that I've been asking for, for the past few months now. I have read and watched as many videos and posts and instructions on it as one possibly could.

Today I used my straight razor for the first time, for some information I have a DOVO Solingen blade and it is very sharp. I started with the top of my face by the side burns and I was happy with it in the beginning, soon though when I reached my chin line I had some difficulty. I began with WTG, then XTG, and finally ATG. And my cheek and under my neck is very smooth and I am happy with it, but the real problem is my chin, my hair there is very thick and I have a very distinguished chin and jaw line, any recommendations?!
