I am quite new to straight shaving and as such, I have bought myself a few old razors from both ebay and my local antiques/junk warehouse. Anyway, I've been using them for honing practice and I now have a very naked, no, bald left forearm!!! Am I destined to have a naked arm for the rest of my life???

That's why they make long sleeve shirts.:rofl2:
Wow, I am dealing with the same dilemma.
No cuts? You need some nice nicks to make that arm look right.
I forgot what armchair looks like.
Iv been shaving my arms with my sr. makes my tattoos look more vivid. Not all the time. But I got a redheaded pinup on my left inner forarm that I keep shaved. She is a looker and I hate when her legs get hairy.
Leg hairs work as well. :)
Don't feel bad, I have a buddy who has his left arm and both thighs naked.....Someday it will change or at least you'd better hope so...!
keep it above the knee!!!
I use the legs as I wear long pants at work so no ones the wiser and when I'm in out and about I don't care if people think I have leprosy.
When I first learned to hone I found that leg hair grows back faster than arm hair.
pull up your shirt and work on the gut hair.
hahah i love this thread
The key is to do it in a pattern.
That way you look trendy as opposed to diseased or insane.
I've run out of excuses for my forearms and hands...
Yeah, my right hand and about two inches of my wrist are bald. Looks like I dipped my hand in a bucket of nair.
Yes, my left arm can relate to that :) Colleagues looked funny at me for a bit, but then I informed them about my new hobby and all is well, lol
Just what I was thinking. I've sat and honed a dozen razors at once and by the time I was done I had shaved most of the hair off both forearms and quite a bit from my lower legs.Quote:

Try to test on each hair on your arm.
use 1 by 1. in this way arm hair takes at least 1 months to finish it up and if you do correctly one side gone another part of the arm grows.
just cut 1 hair at the time.
Now your problem resolved glQuote:
