About two months ago I decided to enter the world of SR shaving. After reading a lot on this and other sites I decided to learn wet shaving technique with a DE first. Thoroughly enjoying myself. Never knew shaving could be such a relaxing, luxurious ritual.

Two weeks ago I bought a Shavette and Personna ridge back blades. I started by doing just the down pass on the cheeks and then added the chin and neck. I finished the shave with the DE.

OK. Everything is going fine. I put a new blade in the shavette yesterday and sliced off a layer of my chin the size of a 2 and 1/2 dollar gold piece! Yeowwww!! Happened so fast I'm not sure what I did!! This is a crazy way to shave!! Got a nice scar.

Ended up laughing my ass off with the wife while bleeding all over a washcloth!! Thought about putting the shavette away, locking up the blades, and never touching a naked blade to my face, again. But I won't give up. This stuff is addicting!

Had to happen some time. Hope it doesn't happen again.
