    Welcome to SRP Brett. Poco is correct in that there is a lot of info for the newbie in the WIKI located at the top of this page on the menu bar. Read up and ask questions. Sounds like you are on your way to great shaves!

    Welcome! It sounds like you are off to a good start! The best advice I can give has already been given by my SRP brothers above; Read the Wiki, search the site for topics you find interesting and get stuck in!

    Good luck and keep us posted!

    Welcome to SRP. Keep your powder dry and your lather moist is the best advice I can give. Kidding aside, read my sig line below to avoid nicks and cuts and stretch your skin to have a smooth shave.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
