Today's shave brought to you by the letter "G", and the word*WOW! *First shave with a straight today, I'm looking forwards to tomorrows shave!
There was significant tugging with the first pass of the straight, almost felt like the razor was sticking to my face. Sideburns to jaw line done on the right side of my face. It took a while to figure out how to hold the razor for the same pass on the left side, but again tugging was the only issue. Feeling overconfident, I went back to the right side of my face to finish off and the square point gave me a little bite.
I put the straight down and switched to the DE to finish off, which is where the WOW comes in... absolutely no audible feedback on the second pass where I used the straight!
I ended up getting bit by the feather in the DE on my third pass.
A few bites with today's shave, but I'm very happy with the results from the straight!
