it started when the store i shop at quit carrying the shave cream i used in a can. the others were more expensive and i decided to try shaving soap and liked it. then i stumbled across a video on youtube by lynn abrams and decided to order a DOVO razor from vintagebladesllc. i was of course a little nervous the first time, but with just a couple of nicks and the help of this site i finally got it right. i will NOT go back to disposable junk again.
for the first time in my 50 years i really enjoy and look forward to shaving and the time spent learning how to be even better at it..
