Howdy all. I apparently have real sensitive skin. I have been wanting to get a straight razor, but have been reluctant to spend the money on a razor only to find out that it does not work for me. I get about 2 shaves from a disposable razor before my skin gets all chewed up. I tried my fathers old safety razor, but that made me a bloody pulp immediately. My newest adventure, I bought a Parker sr1 shavette. All I have to say is, OUCH! Here is my question, will a properly honed straight razor, used correctly, shave me without chewing up my skin? I was using Edwin Jagger shaving cream for sensitive skin also. Any advice would be helpful, because my alternative is to go back to 1 disposable razor a day.
