Hi all.
Just had my first shave with a single edge razor,well,part shave really,i tried a first pass but couldnt get the head under my nose for fear of slicing it off,went round my jaw and chin but felt some tugging and pulling,i used a blade from connaught so it was a good one,i ended up finishing off with my Muhle R89.
My Alum block stung like an angry Wasp and depite ASB my face now smarts like hell,prep was as usual,hot shower and face splashed with warm water before lathering,i used Honeybee Mocha Coffee Soap which produces nice thick lubricating lather.
Where did i go wrong?any advice,scathing criticism,soul destroying comments are welcome,ish.
