First shave yay. After waiting for about 2 weeks ok 1 but it felt like 2 i shaved for the first time with a straight i was amazed of the lack of razor burn i guess its true that these razors are more gentle on the skin. Isn't that a little ironic 3 blades held almost on the skin with a smooth bar and aloe strip built in to a vibrating pivot head with god knows whats in it shaving cream is worse for your skin than a single blade that sits directly on the face and soap that is actually...well soap.

anyway wanted some help from anyone who knows something that will soften facial hair mines very thick and wiry, the razor catches and skips like a rake on gravel around my cheek bones and chin, facial Hair grows in lots of different directions around there too.

the razor was sharpened by some guy named lynn abrams i guess he's kind of a big deal around here,stropped it once on linen and leather strop before 2nd shave and it shaves my cheeks really well so i know its not the razor(probably lack of experience) but thought a good product to soften the hair would help any ideas?
