    Hi Lori & no need to apologize. There is a Ladies Corner here too so all are welcome. Quite a few women have changed to using a straight razor because a person gets a much closer & smoother shave when one is honed & stropped right. A straight razor usually doesn't itch & burn like a cartridge razor will plus the cartridges are more expensive in the long run. Some have just switched from the cartridge type to a double edge which is fine but the best I have found is a straight razor. It will take some time getting used to but once you do, you won't go back. Great to have you here & if you have any questions just ask.
    Good luck my friend.

    Hi Lori welcome to the SRP if you collect straight razors you have come to the right place, when you have a little time it would be nice to see your collection.

    Welcome to the forum. I am also a Georgia resident. I hope you have had a good time in the US so far.
    I have been collecting for a few months.

    SRP has male & female members from all over the world, so no need to apologize for that.
