Thread: Hello

G'day Ben, be sure you look at the sub forum on Shavette's. There is plenty of information in there on that type of shaver, and of course a lot more on your standard cut-throat razor. Welcome to the forum mate.

Welcome to SRP!
Sure Shavettes are simpler to maintain but slightly different to shave with . you are going to want to try a variety of blades in it until you find the one that fits your face.... most vendors have blade sampler packs.

enjoy,

Hi and welcome. Doing a bit of reading on prep and angles would be a good idea and watching some you tube vids for technique advice.

Hello, former Bubblehead here. Welcome to SRP.
Find a local barber who does straight shaving and see what he can tell you about shavettes, preferably one who is also knowledgable about SRs.

Thank you for the welcome, I have a feeling this will be something I'm going to enjoy.

I hadn't realized that there was a shavette subforum, but since you posted that Mick, I've been reading up on some of the posts. Thank you for mentioning it.
I've been watching videos, reading posts and articles, etc. but mostly waiting for my razor to get here so I can get started.
It's always nice to run into fellow bubbleheads, Dude, nice to meet you brother.
