So I've been shaving with my Dovo straight razor 5/8ths off and on, but a few days ago I decided to shave every day. The first day went okay, a few noobie nicks, but other than that it was fine. The next day I had to finish with an electric razor because I still had some stubble left over after I made a pass with the razor. And today I had a lot of stubble left over and I nicked myself a good few times. So it's not cutting the hair and I'm cutting myself. So this tells me that my angle sucks ass and my stropping is horrendous. My razor did come professionally honed, and I have a 4000/8000 grit wet stone to sharpen it, which I used the 8000 grit the other day before I began to pick up straight razor shaving again. Yes, I stretch my skin and put a warm towel on my face before I shave. And my strop has 2 linen sides, one is coated with a honing compound and the other one is plain. I usually only use the compound about once a week and do 10 laps on the compound, and 25 on the lines suffer of the strop then 50 laps on the leather side. When I don't use the compound, I do 25 on linen and 50 on leather. So, tonight I threw in the towel. I feel like I'm doing all the right things, but clearly I'm not. If there's any advice for me, I'll gladly accept it.
