Greetings Gentlemen!
Today marks the first day of my adventures into straight razor shaving.
Pre: Hot Water
Shave: Merkur 34C HD w/ Astra SP / Imperial 11/16 (from whippeddog)
Cream: GFT Violet SC
AS: Proraso Splash
Overall it was definitely an interesting shave. I shaved my cheeks/jaw with the Imperial and discovered for me the difficulty lies in the ability to see what I'm doing! Hopefully this becomes trivial as I gain more skill in SR shaving. Some minor irritation on the jaw line, but this was to be expected as I saw it coming when I was shaving.
I finished the shave with my Merkur safety razor with a single pass. A beneficial learning experience today for sure.
Pictures to follow in future posts.
Have a great day everyone!
