to TSD @Solitaryshaver_53 I hope you enjoy it here. It definitely gets better as you practice. You must get your technique down.
Welcome to TSD @Solitaryshaver_53 It gets better when you change your technique to adapt to the new style of razor. I suggest, strongly, you start posting your shaves, comments, feedback, questions on TSD's 30DC thread. There is NO better way to get you up to speed and get you really enjoying your successful shaves. https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/june-2020-30-day-rule-focus-pix-discussion.64252/
Welcome @Solitaryshaver_53 from here in western NY. Glad you decided to join us at TSD. We've all been new to wet shaving at one point in our lives .... listen to @Primotenore he's pointing you in the right direction.
Welcome to The Shave Den! Your shaves will get a lot better as you master your technique. I echo @Primotenore's advice to participate in the 30 Day Rule/Focus thread. Have fun!
Hang in there, you’ll figure it out. Lots of informed shavers on this forum, Ask, and ye shall receive.
