Hello from Paris ! (well, not too far anyway)
Hi to all,
Greetings from France (yes, that Paris, not the one in Texas). I'm kinda new to the world of straight razor shaving, although not a complete beginner ; I started using a straight razor one year and a half ago. However, the experience was somewhat of a personal failure. The fact is that time, I used a razor which was not properly prepared for shaving. I'm "back to the business" with a new one, and since it's a much better experience, I still have a lot to learn from you guys.
I don't know for the US, where you seem to be mainly originated from, but in France, straight razor shaving is an almost extinct art. It's not very easy to find new razors and quality products (oils, etc). Of course, there is always the Internet.
Well, that's it. I'm sure I'll enjoy my stay among you people !
Cheers,
Eric
