Thanked: 0New Member from New Jersey
Hello SRP, I wasn't even aware that a SR forum like this existed. By chance I was surfing for Straight razors and got stumbled upon this amazing place.
I have been Wet Shaving for over 8 years now but it was always with the Cartridges. A recent visit to Tampa and I stopped at the legendary knife maker Stan's place. He repaired one of his own razors and I bought it back home with me. I always wanted to try SR and he got me hooked. did my first shave with SR the entire shave as opposed to beginners tips and I must say no nicks or cuts.
Luckily so, i did not even get any bumps (in my 8 years, I always got bumps on my neck area) The shave was not close to the cartridge razors I used but I understand that has to be my wrong technique.
However, this forum will lead me to shaving nirvana and my own Zen. I stopped before even beginning to post questions or read more, I should stop and say Hi to all. Thanks and look forward to my learning or SR Shaving nirvana.
And Lynn, thanks for starting this forum and making those amazing videos. Thumbs UP!!
