    Gday mate. Slow down brother. This is your "you time". Get some nice cream or soap and take your time.

    Hi Keith and welcome to Badger and Blade!

    Sounds like it could be a preparation issue or perhaps razor angle.

    Could you let us know what razor and blade you are using along with what soap or cream.

    ANOTHER Aussie - wow, how many is that this week.

    As others have said slow and no pressure. Get some good gear, take your time and enjoy the shave
