Hey there, Jeremey from San Diego here. Been combing through the wiki for the last couple days and figured I would try my luck posting. My other forum (for old Harleys) is set up a lot like this one, so it shouldn't take too much time to get used to it here.
I started out being interested in straight razor shaving after going to a great barber shop for the last year or so (Dapper Jay's in La Mesa, CA) where they offer shaves, and wondering how one goes about a shave like that. I already have an AOS brush and their 3-part setup (never got into it, razor burn issues). Haven't yet decided if I'm a DE or straight razor guy (but leaning towards DE), but I do know that the tips I've learned here so far are already helping my razor-burn throat, and I'm not even into a single-blade shave yet! Eventually I will get a setup and give it a go.
Thanks for all the great info here, look forward to getting (and eventually giving) some pointers etc. Cheers - Jeremey
