The Son's first real shave
Well, it finally happened. The son was ready to start shaving. Tonight was the first go around with the real straight. I started in April of 2011 and have been waiting for this day for a long time.
Glen @gssixgun gifted us an acrylic razor many years ago and I have some shots of that. And, then some shots of the boy with a real one:

It took like an hour and he made me super nervous. He will really need some help with hand placement, angle, etc.
Thanks @gssixgun

I can't believe it has been that long, thanks for the "Rest of the Story" Coach"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

Thanked: 0That is awesome! He needs some help with his lather and razor angle (perhaps). Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is older he will not depart from it.
