    Howdy folks,

    I'm a recent college grad who has had an interest in learning more about various shaving techniques for a while, but simply had no time and no money. (The money part hasn't changed — just the time part!) A former roommate suggested I join the site, and I'm hoping to learn more about all this stuff.


    Thanks!

    Welcome to B and B. I live in Kentucky. You know, a Hoosier is someone from Kentucky who ran out of gas on the way to Chicago.

    You really can get into wet shaving for very little money. Unfortunately, as you go along, you may catch RAD. Then, things can get more expensive. Enjoy.

    Welcome to B&B! If you're looking to shave on the cheap, get yourself out to your local antique and junk stores. There are still many excellent razors out there in the wild and you can find bargains still. You never know, you might stumble across a nice stash that can be put on BST that will enable you to buy a nice brush and a few other goodies.
