First Shave
I followed in my Grandpas footsteps today & had my first straight razor shave. I watched pretty much every video I could on you-tube & read ton's of forums on this site & it all paid off. I started with a hot shower, 5 drops of all natural shave oil, Kiss my Face moisture shave cream, then "Took My Time" & let the blade do all the work. I did two passes & not a single nick. I finish with Clubman pinaud after-shave. Thank you to everybody that's posting-!! That knowledge was full proof.
well good for you. most of these stories are of extreme hemoraging. bout time we got a happy ending.

Congrats and welcome,
You're all too right about letting the blade do all the work. Adding too much pressure is a sure recipe for irritation. Sounds like you're off to a great start!

It's encouraging to hear that the first attempt isn't always a bloodbath. Congrats!
Great Job..
You sure did better than my first shaves (although I didnt bleed that much the first shave).. the second or third was worse.. it was bloody smooth..
Have Fun!

Right on with the Clubman Pinaud aftershave!
way to go manthere is no better feeling than having a great shave i still get the same feeling shave after shave i only wish i had started 15 years ago
Glad to hear it can be done. I just ordered my first razor and have been studying everything I can. I have been anticipating a blood bath my first try. now I have some hope. LOL taz/mike
Mike, there is no reason why it could not be done. There was a time were straights were the only way. Please let us know of your experience.
Al raz.
