I am definately a beginner. Been SR shaving sonce December. Using a shavette for a year before that.

I currently own and use 4 razor and have another 2 razor in the process of being usuable.

Have not yet found out what to be my favorite. Wade & Butchers are nice and big and heavy and deliver great shaves but on the other hand my Clauss razor ismy easiest to use and delivers somenice BBS shaves.

My favorite to use is the Proraso pre/post shave cream. But I have also used pre-shave oils and some nice artisan soaps that have been really nice as a preshave

My Art of shaving Sandalwood cream is my favorite. Favorite scent and performs great. Out of the 15 different soaps and creams I have tried its my stand out product.

I use an alum block after every single shave. Love the light sting it gives and really tones my skin.


And if money were no object I would probably have closer to 400 razors than just 4.
