As a trumpet player I'm pretty sure the no pressure method was debunked years ago. But I suppose the no excess pressure method applies to both. There was a mouthpiece with a spring that cut off the air if you used too much pressure. I don't know how we'd do that for shaving.I am a brass player and every time this subject comes up I'm reminded of the "No-Pressure Method" which was big when I was coming up. Maybe it still is, I don't know. I think most of us figured out at some point that if you wanted to be a high range specialist, at least with any clarity, that we had to modify it to be the "Some Pressure Method." Anyway...threadjack. Sorry.
This is excellent advice. As a straight shaver, when I was learning to shave with my non-dominant hand I realized that I generally got better results with that hand than my dominant one. At first I thought it was just that I was being more careful but then I realized that because I didn't have quite the same level of fine motor control I was moving my whole arm instead of suing my wrist. When I applied that to my dominant hand my shaves got better overnight.
