Welcome!

Glad to hear that you've started on the great adventure of Straight Razor Shaving!! I'm sure that you will find this site not only helpful, informative, but Very Friendly!

Check out all of the Wikis and Forums especially the Beginners , also check out the misalliance posts! They are always very informative!

Again! Welcome!!!!!

Welcome,

I learned and am still learning from this website and from Lynn Abrams CD.

I highly recommend that you read, ask a lot of questions, and get Mr Abrams CD. It is not hard to learn how to use a straight razor if you get all the information and supplies you need first. Keep in mind that you WILL cut yourself. It is all part of the learning curve. Read the Wiki on this website. It will answer most of your questions.

I think I found is that straight razor shaving is great and addicting. Never had a better shaving experience that I have in the last couple of months.

Best regards,
Johan
