Thread: Finally!!!

I finally got to shave with a straight! And it is all thanks to Mvcrash for sending me a loaner until I get mine!

All I have to say is WOW! What a difference a quality razor makes! I have never been so nervous/excited for a first since....well.....you get the idea!

All went well, no nicks. Went ahead and did all WTG and some XTG as I really don't have much to shave. I keep a full beard, but it is shaped and well trimmed. Got BBS on the cheek area and of course much more practice will be required until I get there with the neck, especially on my left side.

I love how detailed you can get a beard line with a straight, you just can't get that with safety razors.

And it is not only the shave, it is the whole process that really is simply enjoyable. A place where a man can just get away and enjoy the simpler things in life...

I already can't wait for the second shave!!

Where has this been my whole life????

Oh, and a big thanks to everybody else who has interacted with my other posts, you all helped keep me motivated and encouraged.....thanks fellas!
