How would it interfere with the camera? Because had I been using my left arm to shave the left side just as everyone says a shaver must, that's right in front of the shot and would have blocked it.

Your argument makes no sense, by the way. If someone doesn't adopt a common way of doing something, but slightly alters it instead, then they're not abandoning a standard (since it was never familiar to their muscle memory to begin with), but creating one of their own. I never had any problems when I was learning at all; I simply found using my right hand more comfortable for the left side of the face. And as I've said numerous times already, the "standard" stroke is very familiar to me. I make use of it and even explain this in the video, calling the first grip "somewhat unconventional," at one point. So why am I still reading nitpicking little responses from guys with less posts, less time on this board, etc?

You're the second person to say you wouldn't recommend such a style. Well, I wouldn't recommend that you be recommending to anyone either, if you can't accept the idea that someone can successfully do something without copying "the book" 100%.

In fact, instead of just saying "it's wrong," why don't you explain exactly why one should favor one grip over another. Is it because the grip I used is likely to cause the shaver to drop the razor? Gee, because I never have. Is it because I cut myself in the video? Because I don't (and never have). No, the fact is, there's no evidence you can put forward, since what you'd need is a baseline to first tell you what a "standard" shave looks like. The problem is, there's nothing standard about peoples' routines the world over, because from video to video, people to things differently. The barbering videos? All have different styles.

Oh, and the angle was steep? Was I digging in to my skin or irritating it in any way? (No, I wasn't.) Then it wasn't too steep.
