Congrats HS! Now you're shaving in style!

PS I bet you can go directly ATG. I do on some parts of my face so you should be able to make out fine against the leg hairs. I don't know if that would amplify your goosebumps though.

I only do one pass, and it's against the grain. I don't use anything to combat the goosebumps, since they go away on their own, and I've found that I get them less and less as my body gets used to the straight razor.

Congrats on your first shave! Keep it up!

Thank you, Lilth..

I did noticed later in the evening the goosebumps went away. Hopefully, it will be less each time.

Woohooo!!! Well done you.

I only do one pass ATG, sometimes I still need to do an XTG on the knees but I think thats just me, hehehe.

Never had a problem with goosebumps on the old pins, but I did get them elsewhere when first using a straight. It seems your skin does get used to it after a couple of times.

Now, that's what I call > Shaving With S.T.Y.L.E! (and I'm happy you're enjoying your new baby shaver)

and you've got the perfect hubby str8 user to share it with!

Mike, you better stack your razors away!

Thank you, Silver
That is what I thought, only ATG. I found it difficult to shave with the grain and was afraid to cut myself.
