Hi.

I have a dovo full hollow razor, and have shaved about 20-30 times. For every shave, once the blade touches the first hair on my face, I feel an intense pulling sensation that is painful. I've purchased a 4000/8000 norton stone, and followed the youtube videos on how to hone. I did about 40 passes on both the 4000 and 8000 sides and stropped with the linnen and leather sides. The blade passes (I think) the thumbnail and the thumb tests

Is shaving typically painful and should I just "tough it out"? Should I hone the blade more with the 4000/8000? Strop more? Lather more?

Thanks in advance
