Welcome Mapster. I'm from the Alex area. I was thinking maybe NUTRIA might make a good brush. Guess the hair is not long enough.

Welcome aboard the B & B (besides being enrolled in the fictional, sacred and utopian Order of Shavedom). Please feel free to come up to the promenade / sun deck & 'sit-a-spell'.
Sounds like your off to a great start and yes (and the Mrs. and our other home is in DeRidder, LA), this Forum has the knowledge, ideas, and all around 'know-how' to assist in your Wet-Shaving experience. In a nut-shell...your 'gonna' love it here.
Q. What brand of tools (blades, soap, brush ect...), are you working with?
In my opinon, it's wise and sage advice to get a Razor Blade Sampler so that you'll see what blade would be a good fit (mild, moderate & aggressive, ect...), for your face and Razor plus the Thread entitled Wet Shaving Instructions & Tutorials maybe of great interest to you and is very informative.
Although, you may not be additted yet (I think I'm holding up fairly well...with a few exceptions), because we all suffer (gladly and are doomed perhaps), from this shaving complusion (and other Acquisition Disorders), because at times..."Resistance is futile".
"Lead us not into temptation. Just tell us where it is; we'll find it". Sam Levenson
Please don't forget once you get time....to tell us a little about yourself in the Hall of Fame sub-forum.

Razors: I have a Merkur 43c, a birth Year Gillette J2, and an Ikon S3S.
Brushes: Vie-Long Chuchurro, EJ Chatsorth in Super, and a lil' green handled one from Walgreens
Blades: Sampler pack - currently Astra
Soap: Home - Taylor "Sandalwood", on the road I have a tube of Proraso and a stick of palmolive
I can easily see how this hobby(?) can spiral out of control. So many soap/blade/razor combo's to try out. I can see a future episode of hoarders with me buried alive under soap and blades. They'd walk in and say - "dude - you kow you only got one face, right?"Seem to remember starting DE shaving to save a few bucks. Boy that ship has sailed........!
