Hello,
Having given up on the straight razor, because I couldn't get it sharp enough, I thought I'd try a shavette razor. I found that it seemed much sharper and I don't get razor burn like I did with the straight razor, so I don't think it was my technique that was the problem.
The only problem I have now is with shaving the side burn area, particularly where it meets my hairline. No matter what way I hold the razor, I can't see exactly where I'm starting the cut because either my hand or the blade is in the way of my sightline and I risk cutting my side burns too high. Does anyone have any tips?
