Newbie in Washington

Hello all,

Just did my first DE shaving with my new EG86 and I can certainly see why people say that you have to get a technique down. I made sure and watched several videos and read articles here, but nothing can prepare you for when you actually do it. I still ended up treating it like I was using a Gillette Fusion and was pressing down. When I saw that I missed an area I didn't apply more cream. Several newbie mistakes. Luckily didn't destroy my face but did get a few nicks. I definitely see it will take a bit longer to get down then I had originally thought.
 
Congrats on your first shave and welcome. The first one is the hardest. Just relax, Take your time and watch pressure and angle. remember, men have been doing this for thousands of years. It ain't rocket science!!
 
Welcome! If you miss the sun, you can always take a drive to the east side - we have sun! Your restaurant options are sorely dimished over here, however. I will say that Beau's in Cle Elum has some really good food.
