Hello Everyone! This is my first post...
I am considering going to wet shaving.
I don't normally shave, only every once in a while (2-3 times a year). My wife likes the 5 o'clock shadow look so I have been just using a beard trimmer and keeping it low for years. However, within the last few weeks, I have had a patch of my beard hair fall out. No lie, I woke up and a 1/4" hole was there... it has grown gradually and now it looks stupid. I do not know why this is happening, but I do know it looks stupid with stubble
While I don't shave often, I know I don't like it... or perhaps i was doing it wrong. I want to try out this traditional style of shaving. When i did shave it was Schik Hydro 5 and Gillette gel cream. From what I've read, we shaving is easier on the skin, more comfortable and a better shave. For someone starting out, what do I need? Local places to procure said items? I'm not a big online buyer and would rather buy local. We do have an "Art of Shaving store" a few miles away (never been in) Any tips for a beginner would be greatly appreciated!
