I was around 14 when my dad shaved me for the first time. He used disposable Bic razors. He just wet a bar of regular soap, then rubbed it on my face. I had bumps, razor burn, and ingrown hairs after that. Surprisingly enough, this man handed me down my grandfathers straight razors. He never shaved himself with a straight razor. They were all dull, and at the time there was no internet to find folks who could restore razors. Since then I have had my Grandfather razors professionally honed, as well as purchased razors (shave ready). I've learned how to shave from videos from the internet. As I have learned over the past year or so, fathers used to teach their sons how to shave properly. This was not the case for me unfortunately. I would love to hear your story on how you were taught.
