    Question What "should" stropping sound like?

    After about 4 months of shaving with my full hollow I am finally getting cut free shaves and feel my stropping skills have impoved as well.

    No matter how many stropping videos I watch I still cant tell if I am doing it right. most of the time I gauge how "well" I did by what comes off the blade after I wipe it after about 30 passes on the strop.

    I tried to check in with a few local barbers but they all use straights with disposable blades and either had no clue about traditional straights or "stopped fooling" with them a long time ago.

    Also whats the opinion about stropping after a shave?
