I know exactly what you mean. I can't remember the first time I thought about learning to shave properly(may I say)? I guess it must have been that first time when I was 16 or 17 and watched my barber Jim do it himself. The only thig I remember thinking is "I don't even really shave yet, I'll never need that. Why is he telling me all this"?
The first time I actually thought about wanting to do it myself? . . . It probably started drifting in as an idea about ten years ago or so, but I've no idea what really started it. Gotta think about it some more.
