    Smile Still Find Hard To Believe

    I've been using a straight to shave since October 2010. I am still amazed at how close a shave one can achieve. I had to shave quickly this evening to attend a wake. Exploring my face after the shave, it's hard to believe any other method of shaving can beat this. I only used the basic wtg and atg strokes. This stuff is addictive! Makes me want to shave a couple times a day just for the fun of a really close shave. I sure wish I had discovered this years ago. I'm lovin' it!

    It is a very good feeling when you get a BBS shave by scrapping a very sharp steel blade across your face.

    I agree with you, it is amazing how good a shave a straight can give.
    I'm still faceturbating hours after a close shave. Straights work, that's for sure!

    haha all day long I'm rubbing my face to check for newly grown stubble and to feel how smooth it is so long afterwards. Once I realize I'm doing it, I wonder how crazy I looked to others.

    Yeah, this is true, after a good shave I faceturbate like a squirrel monkey all day. My Dad told me many years ago this would cause blindness. Maybe it's true as my eyesight seems to be going to the dogs.
