Thanked: 0A few questions
Hi all,
I'm brand new to this and have'nt even had my first shave yet. Like most things that catch my attention I jumped into this head first without really doing any research on blades, strops, and everything else and consiquintly baught a kit from ebay before I came up for air. The kit included two razors, the brand name starts with a z, has a couple of e's in the middle, and ends with pk. Now that I'm up and breathing I've come to relize these are among the bottom of the barrel and so starts my questions.
1: Are these razors good enough to practice honing techniques?
2: If they are good enough to hone, can I shave with them or do you think this would ruin my experiance?
On to lathering: I have tryed to read and watch everything I could about this and from what I've seen some people use soaps only, some use creams, and some use both, so:
3: Is this all just personal preferance and I should give them all a try to see what suits me, or are there resons for one versus the others?
Well that ran a little longer than i thought so I'll just end here for now. Thanks for any help or advice you can share and please forgive my spelling.
