    Greets!
    Ex long time military guy here (Army and Navy). In the military we tend to think of shaving as a necessary chore. The joy of the straight shave comes from realizing we can turn that chore into a brief few moments of mind clearing self-indulgence.

    Congrats on making the leap!

    If you are in Central Minnesota, then you are near the Twin Cities, and so you are in luck. If you would like personal instruction, RandyDance is the guy for you. He has helped a lot of beginners and nothing gives you a great start like help in person. I'm in Rochester, so you can get hold of me as well if your definition of "central" is a bit off!

    Utopian said it and there a bunch of guys in MN and a couple up above Anoka and at least one in Duluth. RandyDancer may be able to put you in touch with a person nearer to you.
