    Hello everyone I have always wanted to shave with a straight and just now getting around to actually buying one and trying it out. I have not shaved yet but I have ordered my first straight... I plan on making a new post whewhen I finnaly receive it and documenting my eexperience. The razor I ordered was a whipped dog so nuthing to special but hopefully it does what I need it to lol.

    Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated.

    Where are you in Iowa? If you would like some help in person or just to look at other toys, I live in Rochester but still have a house in Iowa City. If you can get near either if those places, I can help you out in person.

    Welcome to the forum.!

    There's an offer you shouldn't refuse , Ron,s been around for a while and one on one help will put you ahead of the learning curve. Sounds like a good plan, no sense in spending a lot of money till you find out if you like shaving like this. Do you have a strop yet , if so read up in the library and practice. Tc
