Here's a little bio.
I'm 16, and haven't been shaving too long.
The real point is that I'm interested in using a straight razor, and I'm willing to dish out the money that's required, and no, not my mother's money, I promise. I guess the reason I'm interested in this is because I really appreciate the old fashioned way of things, along with formality and class, which is typically shown in my everyday attire. Okay, we got that outta' the way.
I'd like a little help with choosing shaving cream, brushes, razors, etc.
As razors go, I've had a look at some, but not an extensive collection. I'd like a razor (or at least I think I do) that's really minimalistic, preferably something relatively similar to this:
Amazon.com: Dovo "Flowing" Straight Razor, Grenadille Handles, Full Hollow, Carbon Steel, 5/8": Health & Personal Care
Now, I really don't know what razor I need, but any advice regarding really anything would be greatly appreciated. I also don't know how the whole shaving cream thing works, and I don't know too much about keeping the razor sharp except for sharpening it against some strap thing.
Anyway, thanks for giving this a read, and hopefully some of you enjoy it for whatever reason.
