Just completed my 12th or so str8 shave and just using the razor each and every time has done wonders for me. I'm really confident in moving the blade around, and have dropped back to my DE routine of 2 passes, WTG and ATG. These are followed, as I do with DE's, by water cleanup.
No nicks now, unless I do something really stupid. But I do have the occasional weeper which I know is due to pressure. All in all things are really falling into place now, even those trouble areas on my neck by the adam's apple are falling into place. I'm still getting some razor burn though, but I swear I'm not using pressure. I know that I must be though, otherwise there wouldn't be the burn, but sometimes it seems that some pressure is needed or the whiskers just don't get cut. Any advice here?
Thanks,
Paul
