So confused where to start
So, I was planning on getting my boyfriend a straight razor for Christmas (he has a lot of problems with razor burn and loves getting a professional straight razor shave) BUT I didn't realize how complicated it is. I understand there are only a few brands of new razors to buy (I think I should get a new one for him??) but what size? Where would I look for a shop I can ask questions at? I am in Seattle and have looked online but there's so much info I just don't know where to start! I'd liked to spend around $200 for all he needs to get started...any info would be appreciated. Thanks!!
