    I'm 44 and just started straight shaving this past summer! I learn something with every shave.

    Maybe I need to start the Octogenarian Corner where we can all sit, sip good Kentucky Bourbon, and make comments about "the whippersnappers and their antics' from our rocking chairs.

    I think you'll find the results much more agreeable too. Good luck.

    Welcome JJV749KDV! I'm 54, this past June I got a safety razor was impressed with the shaves, and decided to give straights a try. So yeah we can all learn something new. The shaves just keep getting better. After shaving with cartridges and getting tired of paying ridiculous prices, then switching to an electric (for the last 15 years), and getting tired of crappy shaves,I think I've finally got the right idea, with the help of SRP.

    I don't think anything other than a straight can be called shaving. Maybe hacking beard reduction?
