Thanked: 3No Runs, No Drips, No Errors
I shaved today with a str8 for the first time in my life. I did not grow up where my dad taught me how to be a man. I learned to shave and every other hygiene thing from experimentation or peers.
This site has given me more knowledge than I could have ever imagined.
I have been using a DE for the last few weeks until I could get my str8.
I used every bit of advice from the posts here and gave it a try.
My str8 came shave ready, but I did 30 passes on my strop with the least bit of pressure.
I prepped as with my DE and with the lightest touch gave 1 pass wtg. What an experience.
I could not get over the sound of the razor doing its work. I had a couple trouble spots, under my lip, and the point of my chin. I took so much time, I had not moisten my lather a couple times as it was drying out.
The end result, because of the great knowledge shared here I can report, a perfect shave on my first ever attempt.
I will work on my muscle memory and technique so I need everyone to keep posting because I'm learning.
