So my hones finally arrived and I decided to give them a go. I wanted to refresh my razor a little bit so I took a brand new Naniwa 8000 and did 4 strokes followed by chromium oxide paste and stropping.
I started shaving and at the end I had razor burns all across my face biting my teeth I applied bay rum and surprisingly it didn't burn much
I figured it was because the stone was coarse and I didn't lap it before honing (it sorta had small lumps all across the surface).
So I lapped it on the 220 Naniwa plate and it got way smoother.
Then I did 5 strokes followed by chromium oxide and stropping and laid the razor to rest.
Today the shave was absolutely horrible! The face started burning like hell mid shave and it got so bad i had to stop. The bay rum felt like someone was dissecting my cheeks and neck
I've just now done 10 strokes on the 8000 and I'm waiting till tomorrow to see

I'm not using any pressure at all when honing; I hold the razor with two hands at both ends to make sure it lays correctly on the stone.
Also, before shaving I did the hanging hair test and the razor passed it quite well; i even think it was sharper then before my failed honing
