    Default Jockeys' Straight Shaving Video V2.0 - Clean Shaven!

    enjoy!

    equipment used:
    razor: dovo 5/8 SS
    brush: redneck 28mm silvertip
    lather: cstewarts cream (second batch) + glycerin + my redneck soap in my redneck scuttle
    filmed live on location in my new shave den! sorry for the odd lighting, there is a skylight and the clouds were passing by making the light change a lot.


    first two passes:

    Thanks for taking the time to make these vids, Im only a lttle over a month in straight shaving and appreciate the tutorials. I am going to try the Japaneese grip today for the neck, that has been a bit of a trouble area fro me, Im thinking my grip had a lot to do with that.

    This is awesome. Thanks for the video. I was actually searching on your tube for shaving videos and found that you had just posted new ones a few hours ago. Good watching here.

    Do you use more than a 30 angle on your ATG neck passes? It seems like you use an aggressive stroke. I have a heavy beard and it seems I can't get smooth on my neck unless I use a heavy angle. Should I stop doing this? It is damaging to the blade?

    eh, that's only part of it, it's like 12 feet long (double sink + vanity, all one mirror).

    thanks again for the awesome cream.
