Hello Daryl and welcome.
Hey Daryl,
Welcome aboard. I've only been here days, just got my new Boker King Cutter, and shaved with it for the first time today!!!!
I took Lynn's advice in the beginners section and only did the cheeks to start off. Worked great and only nicked myself 2 times!!!
I'm luvin this. I bet you will too!!
Anyway, good to see another newbie... :)
Bye!
Hey Daryl-
I'm pretty new too and like hammer did I followed Lynn's advice and starting shaving in sections v. tackling the whole face at once. That was kind of asking a lot from me due to my excitement with my new straight! It was for the best and having realistic expectations for myself has helped too. I know that (hopefully) after a while I will begin seeing increasing better results and patients is virtue. Best of luck!
