    Default first passable shave!

    Well I am now on shave 5 with my Stainless tortoise special. I am very happy! I managed to get 2 passes WTG on 90% of my face with only one very small nick in the crease of my chin. I still can't seem to get the chin technique am I am just too scared to do under my nose! But all in all I now have a shave which is better than my old 3 ( maybe it's 4 or even 5!) blade disposal.

    PS I am very glad I kept the stainless tortoise!

    Congrats! I remember when I first started about 6 months ago.. and the shaves are still getting better and better. I'd suggesting watching a few vids for doing the area under your nose, it's much easier to watch someone else do it then give it a try.

    Anyhow Keep on shaving!

    Cheers,

    Excellent... I was scared to try under the nose too, but it wasn't so bad after I tried I was really careful!
