    Default Greetings

    Hello All,

    I just joined, wanting to learn more about shaving with a straight. I'm sure I will enjoy learning about the history, technical details, and how to properly shave as well. I look forward to it!

    I have used a straight before, many years ago: my grandfather's old one. I still have it, but I know at least not to try that again without having it worked on! Between Christmas and New Year's, I treated myself to a haircut and hot shave, and it was transcendental. It was like a spa day for my face! This has renewed my interest in straight razors, and I'm here to learn.
