I am a straight razor shave beginner and have a question about my strop. I have a new strop & paste, one side is dark leather and the opposite side is a white material. Which side do I use? I'm assuming that each side will provide a different polish to my razor. Also do any of you strop your razor after you shave? I know you do before you shave but some videos state that you should strop after too. This is my first time on this web site so let me just say Hello to all.

Regards
