Call me inpatient, but went ahead and had a second shave today, to try my first every straight shave. Kept the Mongoose close by for the neck, and didn't even touch it. 2 full passes, neck included. *Queue highway to the danger zone* not a very close shave, but only one small slice from a lack of technique by my jaw, and surprisingly very little irritation. A usual tough spot on my neck, that can still be rough after 2-3 passes with a safety razor, was smooth after 1 pass, I'm impressed for sure! Only real issue, other than a lack of technique, was the lather drying from me taking forever to figure out how to shave certain areas. Results: way better than my first DE shave, I'm a happy camper. Time to keep practicing.
