    Default Hellou from Mexico

    Hi there,

    I'm Arturo and greet you from Mexico and have been wet shaving with DE and SE since May 2016 and just bought my 1st SR, a vintage Westenholm & Sons.

    Now off to get a good strop and about to decide between a Heirloom Strop, an Ezra or an IRL one.

    The thing that drew me this time is that I've been growing a beard for the last 6 months, so thought a SR shave would be an epic mow down this time around😜😜😜

    SR shaving has been the golf standard since 1876.

    Hi Arturo, pleased to meet you.

    If your getting your first strop and haven't had too much practice with one yet.
    I would suggest not spending too much on your first one because there is a very good chance you'll cut it good, I did - a lot.

    I was reading that a lot, although I was convincing myself to avoid the entrance thing since those things are rarely ever used back from my DE days, but it makes sense here since I run the risk of damaging the strop itself.

    Thanks for the advise.
