I am 80 years old and have just discovered the pleasure of shaving with a brush and a single edge razor. I am happily using an old Rolls Razor that I reconditioned.

I would now like to try a straight razor, yes, a cutthroat.
I have viewed your video numerous times as I have with so many of your other excellent tutorials.

As I am about to start I run into an obstacle that I do not know how to overcome.
Lathered up. Razor positioned properly in my hand. I put it on my face.
I lose sight of where it contacts my face!!!
Scraping a cutthroat blindly over my face intimidates me.

What am I doing wrong?

Please help if there is help.
