Is this in my head

Ok so I have been wet shaving now for
a little over three weeks. When I look in tthe mirror
My face seems to look better. Like I have a better complextion.
Is that possible or is it in my head?

I would say that you are right! Better skin care with brushes and the exfoliation they cause with quality soaps makes for great healthy skin!

You're not imagining it at all. Its all part of the joy of shaving with a straight and the process involved

I never thought I would ever look better and then I started straight razor shaving years ago.

Sweet! That's a cool bonus!!

Yeah, you're taking off some skin shaving. Plus the brush work and the soaps and creams and the whole papering thing, really. I can barely remember what I used to do even though it was only a little less than two years ago, but it involved cheap hastily applied soapy stuff, a razor 'gliding' just above my skin 'lifting and cutting' (i.e. pulling hairs out before slicing them and allowing them to go back UNDER the skin (hence encouraging ingrown hairs; surely) and a quick splash of whatever aftershave someone decided to get me for my birthday.

It's a whole different ballgame and your face is saying "thank you"...

After 2 months of straight shaving I'm sure my skin is in a wonderful condition...underneath all the scars, nicks marks & scratches.
