First time

[odioanonimo]

I got out the freshly honed and stropped gold dollar 66. The ginormous omega 98, TOBS sandalwood... And some nivea balm.

I took a deep breath and jumped in.

It was awesome! Not perfect... Two passes and the neck isnt as close as id like... But no nicks, no cuts, was able to use the splash intead of the balm... I feel ... Pretty excited

Here you go.....you're one of us !
welcome aboard

 

[odioanonimo]

Thank you gentlemen. Shave #2 had a few lessons.

1. Maybe start left handed DE... Cause left handed straight is not yet for me.

2. Stay focused... No matter what

3. The alum block WILL let you know where on the face your technique was slipping.

4. Even when you mess up a little... Its awesome

 

[odioanonimo]

Oh and 5. Dont have too get super super close... The next shave is only a day away

Congrats! Welcome to the dark side.
Repeat your second point often!

There are times I am tempted to shave at night when I get home. But restraint is also a good quality😊
