    Hi there,

    I am new here, so here's a short introduction.
    I am from Enschede, the Netherlands. I have a strong beard and a sensitive skin.
    I am about to shave myself for the first time with a straight razor.
    About a month ago I switched from the Gillette Fusion to a DE razor; the Merkur Futur. That was quite a change and I liked it a lot. I already got a badger brush from Muhle and good cream from Trumpert and soap from Mama Bear.
    Last week I bought my first straight from barbershopclassics.nl, a C.V. Heljestrand " Rex".
    Now I'm going to shower and right after that I will use the straight.
    I'll keep you informed. And I'd appreciate all kind of advice

    Hello, & welcome!
    Everyone thinks they have a strong beard & sensitive skin, so you'll fit right in here!
    Hopefully you already have the prep sorted out, so as long as you have a shave ready blade, you're off to a great start.
    Good luck!
