Hi, welcome aboard! Have you started straight shaving yet or still reading up on it? I spent about a month lurking here & on YouTube before making my first attempt.

Welcome!
One suggestion that I will make is that you add your location to your user profile. The best way for you to learn all of this stuff faster (seriously, a lot faster) is to connect with an experienced member near you. Hands on and in person help will make all of this stuff a lot easier for you to pick up.cudarunner and KenWeir like this.

There's not much else like it. I get the same satisfaction out of a good, leisurely shave as from a nice ride on the Harley. And razors are easier to wash & maintain than a v-twin, plus I can't ride anymore. :/
