    Default It Finally Happened!

    Well today is a red letter day, I finally shaved and didn't nick myself! Lol lathered up nice, had a DF 2 pass shave, felt great. I've been getting better just tiny nick here or/and there but today no nicks of any kind. God I love shaving with a straight.

    A red letter day without the red.... Lol

    Congrats on the bloodless shave. I'm sure before long they will be the norm rather than the exception

    Indeed, and I had it again today. Lol I haven't had a BSS yet but I'm in no rush. I don't shave ATG yet I know that I haven't got enough shaves in for that yet. I'll wait until I have at least 100 to 200 shaves first, then give ATG a try

    Against the grain (ATG) isn't as hard as you might think.
    I believe in between your 100-200 shaves, you'll feel very confident in your control of the SR. When that happens, take a look at the many videos that demonstrate ATG razor grip/technique.

    Congrats and +1 on the lack of red fluid!
