Da Bronx
New member from the Bronx! I have been shaving with a multitude of razors for around 40 years. These days I shave my face and head. I am learning straight razor shaving although I have had a straight razor for several years. Only recently have I found the time to learn something new which requires more than a "swipe left." I look forward to communicating with you!

Welcome!
We have some head shavers here that use a straight for it. Lots to learn if you have never used one whether for face or head. We’re here to help.

We also help grow your collection of shave gear...but technically that's called enabling.

Thank you fellow members, glad I found this place. I have had many straight razor and hot towel shaves at Astor Place in Manhattan, but I never imagined I would be able to do it myself. I am not ready to shave my head with a straight, but I will get there eventually. Looking forward to sharing the journey in this forum.

I have found it to be an addicting way of shaving. There is just something relaxing about shaving like they did over a hundred years ago.
