    Default Newbie here from Texas

    Greetings and salutations gentlemen. I plan on taking the leap soon to straight shaving and I am looking forward to delving into all this site has to offer. I have picked up a few straights so far but all are far from shave ready, well one wouldn't take much but all things in due time.

    Dallas - others should be chiming in shortly.
    I know we have a few in the Houston area, don't know about East Texas.
    There is also a Texas thread and a Lone Star Group.

    The forum, with its members and the wealth of information available in the reference sections, are invaluable when you are learning the art.

    Smooth shaving....

    Welcome to SRP!
    Get the razors professionally honed and start shaving. There are several honers in the classified section here.
    Check out the Library to learn how to start using a razor.

    And then be surprised that shaving is an enjoyable experience and not just a chore.

    Welcome! H-town here. The Texas thread is the place! Down in get-togethers.

    Welcome to the most friendly, helpful and informative site on the web!!

    You will find members here of all different backgrounds, ages and occupations from all corners of the world and all with a quest for more knowledge about using and maintaining a straight razor!

    By including your actual area in your profile would make it much easier for someone with more experience to be able to help you. Trust me, hands on learning can't be beaten. I speak from experience. Awhile back there was a member who listed 'Texas' as his location, after some encouragement to narrow it down he was in Fort Worth and a friend of mine was in Dallas and he was able to help the Newbie. If the ex-wife is looking for you for lack of Alimony, or some Bookie that you owe money to is looking for you trust us, we won't tell here where you are

    Seriously, Welcome to an Older But Better Way Of Shaving! It's a long strange trip but well worth the journey
