Hello from the Philippines!
Hi Everyone,
I'm an English guy living in Asia for the last 13 years. Just started with a shavette a friend gave me about 6months ago and love it. I shave my head as well as my face.
I'm in the market for my first razor and have been looking at the start up kits. I guess it's just a case of pick one and go for it. The thing that concerns me most is stropping and honing as I don't think there's anyone in this country I'd be able to get it honed with, so I need to figure out my stroping well from the get go... I think I read somewhere about getting a "practice" strop as you'll probably trash your first one. Is that a good idea and where do I find a cheap strop to practice on?
Thanks for all the info and I look forward to an exciting straight razor future ahead!
Matt.
