New razor makes a terrible noise.
Hello everyone,
A year ago I bought a straight razor on ebay and the norton combination stones thinking I would learn to hone and shave at the same time :)
I never really got it sharp enough for much of a shave at all. After the discouragement wore off Im back at it and took some peoples advice here and got a best quality dovo entry level razor from straight razor designs that comes shave ready.
I put some olive oil on my face 15 min. before the shave warm water and lather. Well my first jawline pass went hhhkkkkhhhhrrrrr. I tried angles from 5 to 90 degrees mostly going for 30. anywhere and anyhow itried it made the awful sound. The first shave was close but awfully painful and not at all what i expected. On the third day I wanted to try again since I am new to this and must first assume the problem is me.
Well four hours after the 2nd shave my face still hurts and the shave is not close at all. I read before the blade should not drag or pull.
What can I be doing wrong? Thanks, Robby
First one's free you say?
