So I Google "shaving cream" and where on earth did I wind up but B&B (which I have noticed many of you are on too). Funny what Google does for us. That site led me to SRP.

I have been an avid reader on both sites for a week now. I have already ordered a Merkur HD and some soaps and I am searching for a good deal on a best badger brush.

Now I am contemplating buying a straight..... oh who the heck am I kidding, I am going to buy one as soon as I get some advice on strop which I will seek out soon ( I have my reasons).

My girlfriend thinks I have fallen off the deep end. I'm not sure, but I think I have found Nirvana....... I can't wait to cut myself for the first time and hopefully last all in the same stroke. Heck, I'm even looking forward to just making lather right now.

Thanks for all the advice I have already read.

Honest man! I like that!
Welcome aboard! I can assure you that you have not found nirvana, but there are a few here who believe it is a reasonable facsimile!
