    Cool congratulations on your purchase!!! If I may ask which one did you chose? PM if you don't want it to be public knowledge. What does your coworkers think of your new shaving method or have you told them?
    Aloha,

    Just a Dovo 6/8 SR with 3 in strop. Nothing fancy but seems like it will get the job done. Been doing a lot of research on DE razors too. When it's all said and done though, all I want is a nice close shave with little to no irritation. Don't think I've EVER shaved and had no irritation!

    You'll like it, you just have to find the right angles for your face and hair growth, and when we say no pressure we mean NO PRESSURE! All you are doing is light short "strokes", the weight of the 6/8 will be enough to go through the whiskers w/ Lynn's edges.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I've found that just searching Lynn Abrams on YouTube has answered tons of questions. Never thought I'd be watching videos of a guy shaving!! Anyways, I'm excited to receive my order and get started. My face is tire up right now and I'm dreading one more night of my electric and fusion!! Just 2 more days and a nice long weekend. Thanks for everything guys!
