Thread: Hello all!

New to the forums, though I've been lurking the past few days. Just thought I'd register to say hi, and thanks for all the helpful info! Just bought my first straight; a Thiers-Issard from The Art Of Shaving. Loving the shave so far, even if I'm still bearded.

Welcome to SRP

That's a fine razor you got there, it should serve you well for years and years!
Take the time, if you haven't already, to check out the links on the frontpage of SRP.
It is filled with lots of great info for beginners and experienced shavers alike.
Any questions, don't hesitate to ask
Good luck!

Thanks. I'm loving it so far. I was jumping around the wiki for a good week before I decided to finally break down and get the TI. Wealth of useful info!

Welcome aboard! Nice to have another Chicagoan around the forums! I'm relatively new as well, but totally addicted at this point. It's driving my wife nuts! You're gonna love this forum!!

I'm hardly a chicagoan. I really should change that. I'm in the northwest suburbs. Lake Zurich.

Yah, well who has ever heard of Lake Zurichians? Like I should talk, I'm a Tucsonian.

Meant that more in generic terms. I'm a LaGrange'ian myself. Love the burbs, hardly venture downtown unless my wife bribes me to. Got relatives in the north burbs...Lindenhurst, Libertyville. Spent a lot of time north. Beautiful area.
