What's new

Greetings from Winnipeg

I've been lurking on B & B for almost a year. I found this site through my research to find solutions to thorougly dreaded (and painful) shave days. The wealth of information, support and "shave porn" has kept me coming back for more!

I'd just like to thank the countless posters who've enlightened me on the benefits and pleasures of DE shaving. The learning curve was steep and mirred with the typical newbie issues but your support and posts allowed me to address these recurring problems. My shaving ritual has become the perfect conclusion to my day. Looking forward to all the ongoing posts at B&B.

My current gear:
Razor -- '63 Sllim Adjustable
Blade -- Derby
Pre-Shave -- Proraso Pre/Post
Brush -- Omega Boar
Soap -- Proraso Green Tea and Aloe
Aftershave -- Witch Hazel/ AV Ice Blue or English Leather

Welcome. Nice that you took the plunge and joined! How much has your shaving improved after finding this site and others along the same line?

My shaving has improved 1000 fold. I emigrated from Mach 3 and canned goo. Shaving with this gear caused significant discomfort, razor burn, nicks and dryness. With naturally oily skin, my body overcompensated resulting, more often than not, in blackheads and whiteheads.

Some blade, razor, soap and cream experimentation as well as pointers from B&B posts and Mantic59 helped eliminate much of these problems! :thumbup:
 
Welcome to B&B!

That sounds like awesome gear!

IMO -It is a pretty sweet setup. I'm lucky to have stumbled on the combination fairly early in my DE journey. A lot of credit should be given to the B&B members for the insight and experience with the multitudes of DE products. :thumbup1:
 
wooohooo, the winnipeg are taking over.

that makes at least 3 of us that i know now.

welcome and if you find any local shops or deals, be sure to let me know.

once i'm able to post and set up a CDN group in the groups section, i might set up a MB group for the few of us on here to be aware of any deals or findings.
