Sometimes you just gotta jump in and do it. Hell be damned.
Took it very easy and just did two WTG passes and a couple cleanups with the Sensor on my neck. Not BBS, but overall far less traumatic than I was expecting. Only two cuts, and one was a reopened cut from Saturday. The Merkur blade feels very good and smooth, even if I don't have the angle perfect at all times. I was extremely conscious of the 'negative pressure' and leisure guy's nitro glycerine analogy when gripping the razor but after awhile, I found myself choking up on the handle and holding it about midway with three fingers (still no pressure!). This seemed a very natural way to hold it but I don't know if it will give me problems down the road.
Thanks everybody for such helpful advice. I never would have gotten to this point without you. The adventure begins.
