Thread: Newbie here, have a few questions

Thanks again for the information and feedback, but why would rubbing the strop with the palm of your hand keep it's draw? Just rub all over? Lol sorry for these newb questions.

Hey we're in Newbies Corner and I'm obviously staying in tonight, so it's all good There are 2 reasons for rubbing the leather with your palm:
1) To warm up the leather before you take the razor to it.
2) Natural oils from your skin condition the leather.
I just rub the stropping surface but on those rare occasions when I condition the strop, I apply the dressing all over.
