Hello from Ontario, Canada!

Hi there,
I just wanted to take a quick minute to introduce myself to everyone on the forum. My name is Shayne. I am 22 years old and live in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada. I recently decided to make the switch to wet shaving with nothing but the finest creamy lathers and straight razors. The first reason for my switch would be the fact that I have very sensitive skin and the second reason being is the very cold winters we have here. I find the rich lathers and straight razors help much more to protect my skin unlike the crap that comes out of a pressurized can and the five blade razors that seem to rip a layer right off of my face. :mad:. So upon ordering my first brush, mug, and razor from www.classicshaving.com I have fallen in love with the relaxing method I have chosen. Hope to learn and share lots with everyone here. Thanks.
Shayne.

I ageee

I am here in Wisconsin, land of cold wind is the translation in some language for sure. I know exactly what you mean, I work outside a lot and my face gets that wind burn and then going over it with a fist blade pulls, senond one pulls more third just plain yanks, fourth cuts if off quite a way from your face and the fifth one cuts a couple layers of skin off, so next time you go outside you burn easier. Foam shave and repeat. Yea been there.
