Thread: First Shave, Grabby

@BobH... THIS. I've actually started making my lather much wetter than early on. I find that it will dry on my face or in the bowl, so I've been really keeping it wet and it helps big time.

Wow... what a difference more water makes!

Shave #2 today brought a much easier 2 pass cheek-only shave. While I had some troubles getting my beard line straight (I ended up fixing it with the DE), things went much much better. Perhaps that will also get better with one of the two shorties I have coming to me!

Thanks for the help, guys. As long as I am seeing progress, its all good!

Oh, and as a side note... stropping isnt as easy as it looks.

This happened to me when I first started shaving. My problem stropping. Have a nice lubricating cream instead of an easily drying soap helps a little too. (amongst lots of other things of course like skin stretching, angle, pressure etc.) Keep it up!
