Love Affair

Ahhhhh I love SR shaving. Today was my second shave and I love it I feel stupid for not doing this 20 yrs ago. Started with a shower and conditioner on the beard. Regretfully I only have what is so affectionately referred to as goo in a can. I was to go and get some creme or soap today but am not able to today. None the less it was great. Two passes with the grain for the most part (my neck grows oddly). And one against with a few touch ups. Add some moisturizing after shave and I have a butter face.
I have 3 razors and 2 in the mail to my house as we speak. As well as two different strops I ordered 1 and within a few hours found a better one so I guess i'll have 2. I have a 24mm silvertip knot from TGN and need to get some exotic wood to make a handle. And I need to visit The Soap Opera in madison for some local made soap. I guess my point is with all of this I am glad I like it since I jumped in with both feet before really even shaving.
I just want to say thanks to all of you and this forum for existing and for all the incredible info here Thanks SRP you rock. :rock:.

Well the strops just arrived If I had only checked the mail before that last post. Wow I ordered them Monday night at about 2 a.m. from louisiana and they arrived today and it was free shipping.

If you think it went well w/ the goo in a can, just wait until you use a quality soap/cream (Proraso is a nice one to start with)

If your ever in St. Paul, MN please come on over to my home. I have a few razors and hones. :)
