Even though they have the USMC, they are gorgeous! (jk about the USMC - friendly rivalry. In '83 my USMC recruiter did tell me I had no chance of being a rifleman with my ASVAB scores being so high, and if I insisted on combat arms to go next door to see his best friend the Army recruiter)

Hey Nick,
Welcome. I echo others when i say thank you for your service. I'm a new guy too! I started with the DE and still use it as I'm learning the art of the SR (Straight Razor).
I too have some(minor) limitations with one arm tho nothing as severe as what you've described. As others have already said, where there's a will there's a way! I find myself in some pretty funky positions and am learning to shave without even being able to see the razor as I shave certain areas of my face.
Take it slow and enjoy this adventure of manliness and pamper yourself. You deserve it!

Should a guy named "Nick" even try a SR? Just joking of course. I kill myself.Last edited by DamnStraight; 03-12-2014 at 09:12 PM.

I was told that the barber in the Monteleone does a SR shave. And there is another place on Magazine St too. I could be misinformed about the Monteleone though. As for shaving with one hand, I've found that there are things that you can learn from others and then there are things you will teach yourself....a lot of it you teach yourself. There will be a lot of so-so shaves until you get your whole routine together but I'm betting it will all come together. Say hello to Mario at the Napoleon House for me. I won't make it this year.
