Love my new safety razor and the shave. But having to relearn how to shave. As in not just throwing water on my face and away I go. Realizing I have to take more time. Basically to enjoy and not rush. Razor burn doesn't feel great. James

Welcome to TSD James! This is the best wet shave board on the planet! The best two pieces of advice I can give you are: 1) Use zero pressure 2) Shaving our way is NOT a chore; it is a pleasure! Savor your shaves like a fine wine, a fillet mignon, a choice cigar or pipe, or any other pleasureful thing that blows your hair back. Once you grasp these two concepts, your shaves will immediately improve.
