    Default Hello

    Well hello all, I'm new here and new to straight razors as well, and I thought I'd stop in and say hola. I've been experimenting for about a week and a half now with decent results. I can shave my cheeks to about 100% of where I'd like, below the jaw about 75%, lip 75% and head about 50%. Must practice more!!!!!! Just not enough "canvas" to practice on all the time!

    Welcome to SRP. If you're shaving your head with a straight you're way ahead of me. Check out the SRP Wiki here for tutorials on all things straight razor related and ask any questions that you may have on the forums.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Welcome to SRP. Practice, practice, practice, there is a learning curve to srt8's but it sounds as if you're on your way. Spend time in the WIKI and if there are any questions just ask. Glad to have you here.

    Hola Mykl.
    Sounds like a great start
    Buena Suerte !
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Hi Mykl, and welcome. Sounds like you're off to a great start. The head is harder for reasons that you're well aware of but you get there I assure. Good luck.
