Thread: New member and new to straight shaving

Hello,
Great to find a place to learn about straight shaving!

Welcome to SRP!
Make sure read the Beginner's Section in the Library, it will answer a lot of your questions.
And feel free to ask us anything - we are here to help.

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.

Hi,,,,,,,Welcome,,,,,,,,,,,,,Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!Ty

Thanks guys for the warm welcome! With you guys help and knowledge, im looking forward to my straight razor journey.

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. :/

Hi and welcome. Straights are a great way to turn a chore into a pleasure.
