A Few Straight Shaves In Italy Got Me Hooked
Hey Everyone,
Like the title says, when I was in Italy, I got a few "barbas," straight shaves in a barbershop, and loved it. Found that I got such a close shave, with no irritation. Since then I started shaving with a shaving brush but still just a disposable razor. Using the shaving brush has also minimized irritation but I'd like to go the distance and get a straight razor now. Well I actually just bought a Parker SRI off of amazon before doing any research and coming to this awesome sight. After reading through a bit I realize it might not be shave ready. Is this razor good enough for a beginner like me. What do I need to do to get it shave ready, what supplies do I need, what's the best place to get them? Any and all help is greatly appreciated, I really can't wait to get started.
Thanks,
J
