Tried the straight edge for the first time this morning, went for a head shave as i am growing a beard. Didn't do to badly, got through half of my head and figured i was pushing my luck so i switched to a safety razor wasn't bad though definitely something that takes practice. All in all, i loved the whole pre shave and actual shaving with a straight razor. Thank you to every one for their posts and videos that have gotten me this far and for getting me even further in the future!
