I think you will find thousands of posts here devoted to all these subjects.

Look around...

Luke, Read all the sticky posts (the ones at the top) in the Shave Clinic forum. There are great tutotials on pre shave prep and how to make good lather. Those and Mantics videos will give you all the info you need. Once you get starteed you'll probably have some specific questions and board members will be ready to jump in. Good luck and happy shaving!

Welcome Luke!

Welcome Luke. Definitely watch Mantic's videos. These will save a lot of reading. Then read and ask questions about the things you just don't get.

Welcome Luke!

Luke glad to have you here. Please watch the Mantic videos, he has done us all a great service. When you are done with them you will be miles ahead.

A HUGE +1 on this from a fellow newbie and Ohio boy.

Welcome, Luke! Definitely check out the Mantic videos. Then read all you can on B&B. Great stuff. Great folks.

Btw, lather in bowl > directly on face.

Welcome Luke! You have started a journey that is so rewarding!!!!

Wlcome Luke, This is by far the best info out there.
