Hi Everybody, I tried the search function and was a little overwhelmed and never found what I was looking for.
I've only been straight for about 3 months. I've been sharpening planes etc "popping" sharp for many years.
Razors are a little different but the equipment, theory much the same. I know my razor is sharp and estimate my beard to be on the gnarly side. I use my bathroom mirror.
Sorry for the long intro(I'm new never noticed an intro forum)
Almost everyday I get a minor nick that'll quit bleeding on its own rather quick, and usually when touching up. My technique is off I'm sure. It's some combo of leaning in to the mirror while bringing my razor up. Some random mis-touch you might say.
well I thought a folding arm or extendable mirror might help push my technique, get me closer to the action.
Looking online I found a range from 40 to 1600 usd. I saw a 40 dollar mirror at a big box bath store and was not impressed with its shabbyness. On the other hand I don't live in a high end Manhatten penthouse.
Does anybody use one even? Or, recommend a good one @ 100 usd or therebouts? Thanks for wading through my story
