Hi All from Belton Texas!
I have been wanting to try straight razor shaving since I was way too young to shave. I am turning 50 in March so I think it's a great time to try it. After reading lots of info on this site (thank you all for your dedication to newcomers), I purchased a razor from a member and I cant wait to give it a try! I know it will take a lot of practice to get good but I so enjoy a nice close shave that I know I will get there. I already use oil, and a brush and shave soap and after shave cream as I hate canned shave cream since I never get an enjoyable shave from it.
Thanks again! Happy to find a place that has answered my MANY questions.
Brian
