Thread: Howdy howdy!

Hey everyone! I've been looking into straight razor shaving for a while, and this place is far and away the most friendly and comprehensive resource I've come across.

I've wanted to get into straight razor shaving for a while for two main reasons. First is that I'm in the military and have to shave everyday and that crap HURTS... Second is a list I have of things I think every gentleman should know how to do (smoke a cigar, tie a necktie, etc), and straight razor shaving is one of the last things on my list, along with sampling several different scotches to find which one I like best. (I do like scotch...)

I look forward to a long and pleasurable stay here, and to learning the art of scraping deadly sharp metal across my face and throat! Thanks for your time!

Welcome to SRP Senko, once you know your way around a straight razor you wont hurt anymore but actually look forward to shaving.
