Gotta a year of 6 days a week of SR shaving under my belt and still learning new techniques. Still enjoy each shave! Ive tried bunches of soaps, creams and brushes narrowed it down to MWF soap and proraso cream as my faves. RAD SAD CAD and HAD has mellowed out alot. At first I couldn't try enough of them (spent a butt load of cash on trial and error) I have a drawer full of back up supplies now. I even managed to get a couple of friends hook on SR and DE shaving. I have to admit when i'm in a rush I do break out one of my 5 Gillette Fat Boys (I know shame on me) but I really do not like rushing the SR shave. I'd like to thank all of those who gave advice along the way and a huge shout out to Gssixgun for sharing his knowledge and tallent on youtube and Gem Star Customs...... coldcut (Ryan)

Congratulations!

Happy that you are still going strong and still enjoying your shaving experiences.

Congrats! Glad you're still enjoying yourself. I'm still working on getting people around here hooked. Haven't converted a soul yet lol.

Glad to hear that you are enjoying yourself! Luckily I haven't acquired any of the AD's yet. I suppose the need to eat overcomes the need for new razors and soaps. Also, I couldn't help but notice the bass in your avatar... is that yours?

Nice stuff. Sticking to it and staying the course is great and I'm glad to hear the enjoyment never gets old.

Way to go, especially on your new recruits. How did you convince them? I have also tried and failed to get friends to try.

My friends still think I'm going to catch a horrible disease from one of my vintage razors... and I have... sexymitosis baby! yeah! the girls love the smooth face look!

regards Alex

I just told them its the manliest way to shave.. no not really.. all i did was take one of my SR's into work and a few guys seem really intrested in them so i honed a couple of my razors that i did not use much and sold em to them
