Cold water shave
Well men a sad story. First , the last time I cold water shave was back in 1968 under strange conditions. did not like then don’ like it now. Anyway, my hot water heater conked out on me. That day one of my razors came back screaming for a try. A Friodur 17 1/2. I am new to str8 razor shaving. I lathered up pretty good and did 2 passes with the razor. WTG, XTG, and a bit of a touch up. Well the right side of my face looked like I had prikly heat around the jaw line, The left side of my face near the neck a bit irritated. Yes, the razor was sharp just came back from a honemeiste.
The million dollar question is what did I do wrong.? Cold Water, poor angle, just plain sloppy. This was my 12 th shave. I kind of finish off with my Goose ATG . Maybe making the irritation worse.
Any advise? Comments?
Thanks
