It all comes with time. I am sure even Lynn screws up sometimes.. I do alot. Thankfully I hope the major scaring is over..

I was thinking the same thing this morning. It's been quite a while since I've cut myself. Watch, I'll take some skin off next time.

I've made a lot of stupid mistakes early on that I wish I could warn other newbies about. It's really only now that I'm beginning to feel like a genuine straight user instead of some amateur hack who knows not what he does. If it wasn't for the help on SRP, I'd have been in even more trouble trying to learn everything involved.

This place has really helped alot of us. It is nice to pass on the knowledge too.

And remember, It's always a learning curve, diferrent razors, strops, soaps,etc,etc, when you shave with a SR

That's excellent Steve

Justin - sounds like you and I might be related (I always thought I was adopted...)

Speaking of tough spots. Anybody have a solution fo this. I can get a BBS shave pretty much everywhere except XTG on my neck and just under the chin below the jaw line. After shaving I can run my hand up and down my neck and it feels nice and smooth, but if I wipe side to side, then I still feel stubble around my Adam's apple. It is pretty much impossible to do a full on XTG pass on the neck, the razor wont cooperate. Am I just being to picky here, or is there a solution to this stubble? My hair seems to grow out from the adam's apple towards the ears if that helps at all.
