    Default Finally Got It

    An old dog can learn new tricks! Today was the first time I completed a straight razor shave without having to finish with a DE. Not quite BBS, but quite passable. I purchased my first straight razor in May. I now have 19 in all. Many thanks to Lynn! I must have watched the shaving portion of his video at least half a dozen times to develop my technique. Lot of fun!

    So many toys out there, and only one face to shave

    Cool

    Yes, it changes from "hey this is a cool thing to do" into " OMG I cannot imagine shaving any other way I cannot live without my Straight"!!!

    Anyone want to by my used electric shaver?

    Enjoy!!....
