Hi everyone,
I've just been wondering about beard lengths, i mean, when's the best length to crack out the straight?!!! I had a shave last week, after knocking my beard off with clippers. I got pretty good results, and not alot of pulling.
I let it grow a bit, then was gonna shave but ended up not having time.
SO yesturday, i decide to give it a go. There was a good amount of stubble, and i have heavy whiskers anyways. I just wondered if it's better to shave quite frequently, as the shave was great, very close, but did pull a little, and i got irritation for an hour or so, which died right off after that time.
I used to get the same problem off a gillette mach 3 turbo with a fresh blade.
OR should the razor take out ANY length of beard?!!! In which case it's back to the hone, but i'm passing the hht!!??!! I think an 8000 hone could help too? 6000 currently.
Thanks guys. Other than this little gripe, converting to a straight is the best thing i've done for a while!! (especially when i see my collegues hack job with a bic!)
