Thursday Feb 7th...first shave
Today was the day…I finally decided to make a full shave with my str8 razor.
Before I used a shavette and did just a small part of my cheek, but after 3 attempts and 4 cuts I had almost abandoned . :confused:
Yesterday I honed and strop my Wolrd Master Special and this morning I went for it.
It went great, no pulling, no rash, just the pleasant sound of cutting hair. What a nice sensation. I was watching the point of the blade all along. Did WTG, CTG and an almost complete AGT (a bit of trouble angles on my neck). Will figure it out on my nest shaving.:y
Much easier and much safer than with the shavette. Must be the fact of the longer blade.
Détails:
