Hi folks, just like to introduce myself.
I just moved here from the MSN wetshavers group and was relieved to see some familiar names. I wouldn't want to appear to be some sort of forum mutineer
I'm Mat and I own a traditional gents barber shop in Penzance, Cornwall. I am NOT a barber, just someone who loves the old school gents grooming thing and decided to live the scene a little. I am currently practising cut throat (straight) shaves on myself with what would now seem to be quite a lot of success. I am also practising on a group of lunatic friends, again with some success. I am hoping to be proficient enough in a few months or so to be able to offer this service myself in my shop.
I have got so much useful info from the wetshavers and this forum that I thought I should register, intoduce myself and say thanks to everyone for posting such invaluable information.
Cheers guys!
Hopefully I will be able to offer advice of my own in the not to distant future.
Mat
