Thread: My daily shaves are really good now !

Hello all fellow straight razor shavers .

I have been at this for almost three months now , and feel that
my technique , is now much better . So to all you newbies , stay
focused and don't let the frustrations put you off ( remember
there are no prizes for fastest , least amount of hair on face or
other ideas ) try to enjoy the process too .

I also found that sticking with one razor for a week or ten days , and the
same for soap/cream and brush - cuts down on the variables.
So it feels really great to have developed some skill and confidence
using a straight razor .



Also of utmost importance , is the stripping . Took me a bit longer
to get that feel too . Once you can tell how the razor drags
on the leather , when it is ready - your good to go .

Thanks to this site and numerous individuals for their posts
and wisdom of their experiences - good and bad !

Cheers ,

Scott
