    Default Clueless!?

    Hello!

    So for the past few weeks my boyfriend has been mentioning how much he would love to try a straight razor. I figured that since Christmas is coming up, I'd surprise him with a starter kit! I've been reading the site a little and have gathered which brands are trustworthy and which are not and that I shouldn't spend a ton of money on a fancy blade or stromp but rather, spend the money on really nice cream. Does anyone have suggestions on where to buy? Are there manufacturer websites or should I look for a barber/beauty supply store? I live in Atlanta, but have no problem buying online. The only issue with buying online is that I'm on a Christmas deadline. Thank you very much for any and all advice!!

    I'm a fan of StraightRazorDesigns and Classicshaving.

    If someone sent me a jar of Castle Forbes shaving cream I'd be a happy guy. The vendors mentioned in the previous post carry that item.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
