    I also just recently got hooked on shaving with a straight razor. My addiction began with pretty much the same story, and I used my loan money on my starting stuff, and plan on using the money I get from selling my books to buy a new razor!

    And you say you're not addicted...

    Nice one Woods. At least the girls you take home won't be using your razor to do their legs, unless they are very brave!
    Iv'e seen shops with less products that your bathroom - very cool

    Not to feed the <cough> addiction <cough> but most decent pharmacy stores will have glycerine. Like Rite-Aid, Harmons, etc...

    Welcome to the forum and the world of str8 shaving!
    Glad to have such a young convert. I was in my fifties before I finally got a clue... now I'm hooked too!
