Hi guys, I'm very new to straight razor blade and this forum. I bought a dovo Solingen today and I tried it. I had very hard time even if I was going out of the shower, my beard has strong hairs so I only did the upper part of my face with only 2 small cuts .
The things is I was cleaning off the gel I used on a wash clothe. I notice afterward there was two small parts cut on the washing clothe cause I was wiping the blade on side way but entirely laid down on the clothe (though I slightly cut it in two small area).
My question is do you think I dulled the blade a bit? Cause I didn't succeed to shave half of my face though I should put a very hot water in my face before. I recently realize I had to use the blade at about 30 degrees. I used it flush on my face cause I was a bit scared.
As you can see, I'm totally ignorant about straight razor blades...
... thanks for indulging me.
Edited: I like the description under my name, very descriptive! lol
