Shaving with a straight razor isn’t easy, and even with this tutorial we advise you to take it easy. Practice makes perfect and the technique may well take longer to master than you’d think.
Preparing your face
An important part of the shave whether using a straight, safety or disposable razor: Make sure you following a good routine before you pick up the razor. Use Cremo Original Shave Cream (https://cremocompany.com/mens-shave/mens-original-shave-cream) or Cremo Lathering Shave Cream (https://cremocompany.com/mens-shave/lathering-shave-cream) for added comfort. Take a look at our guide on how to shave your face for further inspiration.
How to hold a Straight Razor
This one can be a dilemma for many. Holding a Straight Razor can be subjective in certain circles, so take time and get to know your razor. Expert cut-throat shavers can alternate between grips when using these razors, depending on where on their face they are shaving.
We’d recommend resting your first three fingers on the shank of the blade, with your pinky on the tang. Place your thumb near the middle, next to, but not on, the blade.
The Shave
Hold the blade at a 30 degree angle and perform short, sharp strokes with the grain. Unlike a disposable, where you put some force downward on the blade, try not to apply pressure, and let the blades weight and shaving angle do the work. If you press too hard, you’re likely to end up cutting yourself.
Expert Tips
If you’re not ambidextrous, you will find it difficult to shave the other side of your face from your dominant hand. Some shavers try to switch hands, some find it more comfortable to keep the same. Practice makes perfect, just go easy to begin with until you find your rhythm.
After care
Wash your face with cold water and apply a Post Shave Balm to soothe any nicks or cuts (especially if it’s your first time). Make sure you take good care of your razor and equipment and keep it in a dry place away from harm.

I thought about shaving wit- h a straight razor more than once, but for one thing I don ‘t like the possibility of cutti- ng my face to ribbons, so I’ll just stick with the electric s- haver, thank you; much safe r this way. Besides, after wat ching the Three Stooges do it, I’m not sure I’d want to. Pl us I have no idea where to g et one.
