Welcome aboard. You have been told correctly. This is the place for help and information. Lots of help available in the beginner's section as well as the shave library. You can get answers to most any question with a search but feel free to ask questions if you don't find it.
Be sure to post some pictures of your gear. We love pictures. Also add your location to your information. There may be someone in your area that can help with things like stropping, honing etc.
Enjoy your time and stick with it. There is more to it than meets the eye as you may have found out already.

Welcome aboard.
You only have half the story. Yes, it a place to learn and ask all the questions you can think of but then once you have developed the skills it's your turn to impart that skill to others who are in the same boat you are in now.
In other Words, once you join you can never leave. Har har.

Welcome from SE Washington State.
Unless you are in the Witness Protection System adding more info about your where abouts could be helpful as you never know when there is local help available!
The best advice I can offer for you and others who are just starting out is:
#1 Make sure your razor is 'Shave Ready Sharp'--Factory edges rarely are
#2 Take your time, it's not a race.
#3 See #2
#4 See #3
etc

Hello! Welcome to SRP, I agree with Glen.
ANYONE can post ANYTHING on FB but.. on here there is a lot more fact checking and passing on of valid, useful information.
I'm sure you'll find the help you're looking for here. The searches yield very good results as well remember if you've thought of it likely some else has started a thread on it. Easiest way to begin you research and then start a thread of your own to bring relevant, new ideas to light or just rehash old ones!

Oh, a good thing to know is to see what's new on the site there is a quote new posts " icon in the top left corner under the home icon. That will show you what's recently been posted. That's probably the best way to bone up because you'll find answers to questions you didn't even think to ask by reading through those
