Strop Soap

So I had my period - or cut-throat - knife over a year and I would share what I learned.

I bought my first machine straight razor, because it seemed a good idea. Besides, I always loved that scene in "A Fistful of Dollars, Clint is where to get a shave and all the bad shots. Basically, I wanted to be Clint Eastwood. Without the orang-utan.

Industry razor is that all men about to use more than one price, multi-blade disposable plastic and a bewildering variety of sludge chemicals (read the ingredients next time you shave) for something that should be about:

Soap, water, Sharp Thing.

This is mainly for my brothers that I have several taken to slaughter for birthdays.

Equipment:

Have a good one, with great clarity. Make sure the blade is free of nicks and it is strong. If the blade has nicks or rust on the board, bin it.
Owner a suitable brush and shaving cream. Do not buy anything that looks like squirty cheese in a box. Besides the fact that he is stupid amounts resources used to produce non-reusable chemical sludge that many men seem happy to place on the face, does not work very well. Foam Shaving should be thick enough and must be worked in the beard of a good brush to wrap around the bristles are ready to show the black list! Gillette foam Squirty work will not. Remember a footman Beckham to shave.
Leather Strip - and how to use it. Before the knife Shaving should be Stroppa. Pull the strap tight leather. Place the blade flat against the underside of the belt and drag diagonally upward (with the edge of the end blade) without pushing down so hard. At the top of the belt, turning the blade and slide the same way. Repeat about 12 times.

Preparation:

It is best to shave after showering or bathing, as a good soaking softens the beard.
His face wet with water warm soap and razor to work with the brush.
Razor Strop

Notes: The water should not be too hot for it shaving cream to dry quickly in the face. If the cream on your face as you begin to dry up (the last bit is shaved or can be) a new application with a brush.

Most razor cuts occur for two reasons.

1 - a bad angle. The blade should be about 30 ° to the face. For steep angle and the blade just go on your face. For soft and uncut.

2 - loose skin. You should always try to pull the skin taught behind the adoption of the leaf.

Open the razor blade is 270A ° to the handle. It is open and keep opening it.
Hold the razor securely by placing the index buds and second fingers on the handle, thumb under the shank and against the shoulder, the handle raised vertically between your middle and ring fingers, and toes ring and little rest in the Crescent Tang fit.
The first shot should be his left cheek. Start at the top and pull the skin taught, Shaving against the direction of the hair.
Basically get this right and the rest will follow. My best advice is to start with the easy bit - cheeks - and in the coming days to broaden their field. Comfort "The harder for me is my little chin. I read that shaving is better left to right, but I tend to shave under my lower lip on his chin. Then, off the jaw drawing Ski Hard so it's something I want to shave is not on the board.
The upper lip will inevitably be difficult - you need to increase the angle of the blades at about 50a °, but does not seem so bad.
Finally, you can skip a second Once, after you apply more cream or water, against the hair growth. Normally donÂ't boring these days, as the current Prime General OK and the second step can cause irritation.
Wash your face with cold water, let it dry naturally or dab with a towel, then apply a moisturizer.

After care:

Always clean and dry your knife shaving and store in a dry place. The water is oxidized (if steel). Wash the brush.
Any reduction should not bleed much, water stops flowing. Razor Cuts straight razor donÂ't bleeds as much as the razor cuts to safety.

And that's all. I can honestly that, having always hated shaving, shaving now expect all other days.

Yes, it is longer, but it is an excellent way to start the day - a true rite. Mostly I like to camp and make a point to get a good shave with a small mirror and a Billy Can.

The huge advantage is that you never have to buy a new razor. Disposables cost a fortune these days, while the second rule of quality hand shaving (mine is over 50 years) can be found on eBay for a € 10 - and will last forever.
