Hey all,
New here but have been WS for years (old fart; Vietnam-era vet); probably been doing it all wrong though lol. I've checked out videos on Youtube from mantic59.
Great site here - since registering I've been reading, searching and subscribing to threads, just alot of good stuff here!
I'm using DE razors, have two old Gillette models, a 40's Super Speed and a gold (?) Milord. Currently using Derby blades after playing cheapo blade roulette, but I haven't tried any other brands that seem to get mentioned here - Merkur, Feather, etc. Guess I'll have to do a sampler on Ebay. I'm also looking for a good cream or soap - I've been "making do" with the mass market canned foam. I just ordered a sandalwood soap cake from Classic Shaving (one of their own) then stumbled upon this site to learn it's considered crap by most; I guess I'll find out when I get it. With my first post here, I bought a tub of SRD Sandalwood in the B/S/T forum yesterday, so I'll see how that goes when I get it. Kinda stoked about that one
I have some questions, but don't know if they should be asked here or in another heading. Once again, great site here!
