Welcome. Check the library. Ask all the questions you have. We're one big family eager to help a newbie.
Welcome to SRP!
Straight razor shaving is about changing your shave to be something that is enjoyable instead of an everyday chore.
Start reading through the Beginner's Section in the Library. It will answer a lot of your questions about technique and equipment. Then find yourself a quality, professionally honed razor, a strop, some good soap, and start shaving. If you can find someone local to you that is already a straight user then reach out to them, an hour with someone teaching is better than days of reading. You can do a member search on this site and I know that there are some people in Atlanta, I'm pretty sure there are some people in Columbus as well.
And feel free to us ask questions, we are here to help!
Hi and welcome aboard. As said start in the library and use the search. There is a lot of information here and searching will bring up a lot of info on specific subjects. Good luck and any questions feel free to ask
