Thread: a video i ran into on youtube.. seems to be the guys first shave.

Yup I agree looks like his first shave.

that blade looks dull.. and his lather a little dry.. i'm really feeling for the guy.. you see that cut right under his nose? i'm thinking his face is hurting..

he's got some nice video editing skills though.

I would agree, I dont think his razor was sharp either, hard to tell with what may have been bad beard prep, it looked as if he got lather on the whiskers but not into the whiskers. The vid was too short to get enough detail to determine what actually happened.

+1, I think he's in for a little razor burn after that one.
He's also tilting the blade up when rinsing so the water can run straight into the pivot pin. That makes me cringe.

he needs to learn how to grab the blade first then start using it.
some one save his life. send him message and let him know about srp.

thank you Sham!

I'm going to contact him on youtube, because he needs some help. Beard prep or not, your razor should NOT be skipping like that. That's the type of edge I started out with when I was new (thanks to terrible honing by someone who's not a member on SRP), so I know how much it sucks.

that's a great idea.. this guy obviously has the means.. now he just needs the knowledge..

Poor fellow. The right side of his face was cherry red at the end of the vid. And I'm with Grant, rinsing a razor like that....in my head I was going "Oh...Oh no....Oh da&m, not like that....."

Live and learn....after the razor burn.
