A new beginning: the chronicals of three new straight razor shavers

Great stuff. Congrats for getting over the hump to where you are comfortable with a straight. I am continually improving but once you get to where your at, it's like you have learned to ride a bike. If you go away from it for awhile, the first ride/shave won't be smooth, but you won't have forgotten how to do it.

I have to admit i got distracted for a bit with a new found love of SE razors. But when i have time i am trying to get more comfortable with straight razor shaving. my cheeks aren't too much of a problem, my neck on the other hand is still a huge pain. its so hard to get the angles down.

if anyone has tips, or maybe a video so i can get a better idea of how i should be approaching the neck region, that would be awesome.
