Thread: Stripping Every Shave

Hello all,

So I'm still delaying shaving my beard off, but use my straight to shape the lines. Should I be stopping every Shave still or will it do more harm than good?

I'm basically lining to upper cheek and neck and that's it.

As always, your wisdom is appreciated!

I don't think a stropping should ever hurt. If it only takes a few laps to put it back to where it was then do it. You should be able to feel when it needs a stropping. I guess it all depends on you. How many laps, do you feel it pulling, are you doing just enough laps to maintain it ? Some contend you should because the blade oxidizes after being wet and used then put away. Just give it a few laps before you use it.
