    I have a nice accent-meaning NO ACCENT. Born and spent my first 7 years in Massachusetts, but never developed the Boston area dialect.

    Well, a few cuts/weepers got in the way of another fine shave with Aqua Velva and Acqua Shaving Cream soap(Razorock). These cuts/weepers are forcing me to ask myself if I should grow a mustache/beard in the vulnerable areas, so as to avoid them(the cuts). But then I figure that if I want to lose the facial hair, I'd have to put more force in shaving it off, which might provide for more redness. PUZZLED. I'm clearly not doing well with trying to lose my habit of being rather careless in the cut areas. Otherwise the shave was fine. The Aqua soap is showing some "suds" which is a good sign. 0:25 to load the Maggard Marble Handle, I had nice sweeping motions along the face and neck. Perhaps I should focus on sweeping motions (ATG) in the dangerous areas. Fairly Excellent.

    Sorry about the weepers, Paul. Sounds like a decent shave overall!

    THIS, my friend...is most likely the cause of your cuts and weepers. Even with the disposable, I suggest ZERO pressure. I know that's difficult given the ultra-lightness of the razor, but it is still vital.

    Bill, to my NY ears, you sound like you came from the Southern MidWest. However, I can listen to you all day.

    I'll work that advice in with tomorrow's shave Josephn thanks. I'll have a thicker soap than today's Acqua-I wonder if that might make a difference. But thick or thin, I'll try the zero pressure.
