So i've been putting off shaving with a straight razor for a while and i figured it was time to man up. I was gifted a nice DOVO razor from the art of shaving store along with a small strop. Still a little weary since i didnt want to mess up the blade or dig too deep into my skin i went out and bought one of those straight razors with the cartridge blades instead. I gotta admit there was nothing to be afraid of since it went pretty smoothly. Took my time preped my face with a hot towel and then warmed up the lather so i enjoyed the time it took about 30 mins. got a few nicks but i figured that would happen. im going to keep shaving with the cartridge straight razor untill i have a little more technique and then im going start with my DOVO!

here's a pic of what i used today nothing fancy
