First shave, didn't die, good times
Well.... 'first shave' is a pretty liberal interpretation of what happened. Got all lathered up, the razer kissed my face, facial hair got removed, and somehow no blood was shed... but it was pretty darn patchy and uneven. I'm generally a pretty level guy, but my hands were shaking like a boy touching his first boob.
I started with my left sideburn/cheek area (i'm lef handed so seemed like good place to start). It was patchy- i'm not going to lie. No blood so i dared to try the other side. shaky hands but cut some hair. I tried a little on my neck with no blood... but a very timid shave. At that point I realized i shouldn't push my luck and thought, "i'm still alive... good enough!"\\
I stroped it after (the whole time hoping i'm not screwing up the hone) and looking forward to my next shave. Think staring sternly in the mirror and 'willing' your hair to grow will help?
One question pops in my mind: I was trying to stretch my skin in places, but my skin was too slick with the lather and i could never get a good grab- should i just be lathering in smaller sections?
thanks!
