    Sorry to hear that you cut yourself. I wouldn’t give up using a straight razor. I did the same thing after about month using a straight. 25mm cut on my cheek it took a month to heal. I was afraid of using a straight and went back using a DE until the cut healed. After the cut was healed then I went back to using a straight razor. My problem was I wasn’t holding the blade flat enough (Had to much ang.). I jumped back on the horse and I’m still very careful and slow way down where I cut myself.

    I posted on this subject before and I have gotten some small cuts on my cheek. Nothing requiring medical attention, just home first aid. I am a little hesitant around the area but I am more careful. Just do some small areas and finish up with something else and gradually increase using the straight until you are doing all SR shaving again. We are are all pulling for you. This is a great forum to bring your concerns, thoughts, questions, and so forth and receive awesome support! We are all with you!
    Good luck!
