My First Shave with a Straight Razor
Hi folks,
I've been lurking on here for a little while now and thought it was about time I joined.
I just performed my first shave today with a straight razor. I used a Dovo Bismarck razor, a Wilkinson Sword brush, and Proraso soap. It took me about 45 minutes but it went well. No cuts or nicks and a reasonably clean shave overall.
I don't have a strop yet, but I plan to get one before my next shave. Is a Col. Conk strop suitable?
Anyway, I hope to be a regular member on here and learn from the more experienced straight razor shavers in the future.
