Several times in the past I had thought about using a straight razor. I have never shaved myself with one, but the few times I went to a barber for a shave they used one. I remember how nice my face felt afterwards and the fact that I didn't need to shave for a few days after made me think I should. I have a Gillette Fusion, but after their stance I now have now really gotten serious about switching. The more I have been researching, the more I really want one, kinda like buying a new knife. I have used double edge razors, but never really cared for them. So, in about a week from now, bye bye disposable razors.
You are a brave soul!!!!!! I hope you will have someone post results on here !! (Just in case of a mishap you understand)
Like I said, I have been researching and watching a lot of videos. You should lay the flat of the blade on the face and take short strokes at first. It is a bit slower than using double edge or disposable, but they say that once you start, you won't want to go back.You are a brave soul!!!!!! I hope you will have someone post results on here !!

Cool. Have you gotten a straight razor?I talked to my barber about a straight razor shave. She’s a great person and has said she’s willing to teach.
I’ll be buying her husband (a barber and great person in general) some unique bourbon in return.

There's some pretty good cheaper ones, but like a knife, I want something that lasts and I can rely on.Not yet.

I saw what they did there. The subtle, those that aren't clean shaven are the bullies and sexists, makes me not want to not shave out of protest. Businesses that aren't in business to sell politics should stick to selling their product and stay out of politics. It's getting to the point it's hard to keep track of which have an agenda.
Hence the research. I'm sure if you couldn't learn to use it correctly barbers wouldn't use them on customers.Remember they aren't called cutthroat razors for no reason!
