You won't believe this post shave process
Greetings to all!
Since I'm new to the art of straight razor shaving, I had to share this with you.....Anyway after I make my 3rd pass, I use a nice cool water compress. Here's the strange part - then I take vicks-vapo-rub, just a dab, and coat and work it into my face. I then use a steamy hot compress for about a minute. When you take the compress off its heavenly and cool! When I was stationed in the Philippines in the 70's this old barber shaved my face with a straight and this was his process. I still use it. Finish off with a nice balm made with witch hazel, glycerin,coconut oil, etc.
Kinda crazy huh? Don't know if its good for your face but sure feels good. Anyone ever been through this process?
