    To each their own. I described what works for me.

    Using one hand works for me too. But I recognize it as being necessarily less efficient even if out of laziness I choose to do it.

    Using a straight, I feel that skin stretching insures a closer shave, especially when going atg. It helps in “standing the hair up” . Perhaps more necessary the thicker the beard:signs002:

    I seem to be stretching my skin more as I get older.

    I stretch my skin along with shaving faces and such. More important with a shavette but still a good idea.

    If you have a open seat I will jump on board this one. Good becomes even better with a little effort.
