If you could let us know where you are located, it will help! There may be fellow members near by who can help you learn. Believe it or not, there are members out there that may 'loan' you a truly shave ready razor to try!

There are no guarantees! However as my late father used to say; "It never hurts to ask".

I was helping a young man who has a beard made of Brillo! Another friend of mine lent him a 6/8 1/4 grind and that really seemed to help. A very good shaving and typical full hollow grind looked like a hacksaw blade after only a week of shaving and that's with plenty of stropping.

Yes, a very expensive custom made razor may be the answer to your shaving prayers. pinklather swears by his!
