Nothing like taking off a week's growth with a straight - I love it!
(But with DE I also used a trimmer before the actual shave to minimize clogging)

I HATE missing shaves, but at the same time, I too love those first shaves after 3 or more days of growth. Love that first pass.

I couldn't agree with you guys more! Nothing beats a soothing shave for ultimate refreshment and relaxation!

Every SOTD from Ivo is 5+ worth growth
I haven't skipped a day of shaving in a very
long time.

Interesting video...amazing how the blade just cruises through the beard. and now I know I can't watch someone shave like that...I was thinking he was going to slice himself at any moment....like watching ice skating and hoping they don't fall.
(BTW, shave cream out of a can! Bleh!)

Wow I watched that video in absolute amazement. I can't even get a days stubble off with ease like that using a feather. Oh I hope Lynn's dvd hurries up and gets here.

Yeah, he might as well have shaved dry! I can't imagine the razor burn I'd get if I tried that.(BTW, shave cream out of a can! Bleh!)

Remember though, Lynn shaves with a straight and you're using feather. From what I've read it's not quite the same.

But with all the posts about how scary sharp and unforgiving the feathers are, should the results not be similar?
I was to understand its just my technique needs improving. I have tried adjusting the angle etc and get no joy. I guess this is where you tell me to ditch the feather.
