    Default Got my first shave in

    I decided when I got home today to take a shower and try a shave... it's been growing for a few days, but I don't grow much (that's why I usually shave every 2-3 days)...

    It felt nice - more fresh that normal. I didn't get any cuts - except a little spot of blood on my neck where it caught a little razor burn bump I'd had from before.

    I did two passes - one N-S, the other S-N...

    I think the cream was a little too watery. Perhaps I didn't shake the brush out well enough. That's something I'll work on next time.

    it felt nice though :) I'll just have to figure out how to get that angle right, as it feels a little funny to have to worry about that.

    Great! Remember that you can always add a few drops of water to the cream, so it might be better to start off with the brush not so wet. You will figure it out through trial and error.
