    Hi Matt, welcome to SRP!

    Using a straight razor is an art that takes time and patience to master, but it is soooooooo worth it! I will be frustrating at first (I know I was!) but with practice you will keep getting better and find "the touch" that works for you. Play with blade angle, keep the pressure light (as in none at all) and remember to lather up again if you want to take the razor there. I would highly recommend reading Lynn's stickies - they have a lot of good information - and check out youtube videos too. Jockeys41 has a good series.

    Keep with it, it DOES get better. You will be in shaving Nirvana before you know it!
