First Shave, Not As Much Bloodshed As I Had Anticipated
Had my first shave with a straight razor today.
I did not heed the advice to focus on once part of your face and went full monty instead.
I had a lot of nicks under my chin and only one real cut. My hair grows weird (neck hair grows up from chest, face hair grows down). Shaving my neck was the most difficult especially around the jaw line.
I was taking my time though, so much so that my lather started to dry so I had to re-apply several times.
After I crayoned my face with the stypic pencil, let it dry, and wiped it off, I applied some proasso AS lotion, boy did that stuff feel good.
All in all I liked it and look forward to continue learning this.
I have not made too many posts but I have read a lot, thanks for all of the good information!
