Thread: Question on razor maintenance

I found that three passes was just too irritating and keep it to two passes... it took some time, and two passes with some mixed XTG/ATG, and scything stokes added in the second pass I have let the BBS come to me... yes, minor stubble has remained, but I'd rather have minor stubble than a raw face. Now I get BBS with two passes every shave.

ADDED: I used the alum block as a training tool, in that it stings, and some times more than others, but that stinging lets me know where I need to focus my attention... my whole face use to sting, then as I got better, the sting areas kept reducing until no more stinging, and a much more comfortable shave.
