Good afternoon!
I imagine that my story sounds a lot like the majority around here. I'm in my late thirties, and have shaved for about 20 years. I started out with a two blade cartridge and Gillette foam in a can. I used that setup for several years, and then moved to more blades and gel in a can. I made a few stops along the way to try out an electric, but wasn't satisfied with the sacrifice of comfort for convenience.
I joined DSC in January, beginning at the mid-range cart and their shave butter. I graduated up to their top of the line model, and wasn't really satisfied with the shave I got. But that started me down a path to actively searching for a better shave. I stumbled upon Art of Shaving, and got the starter kit full of Saddlewood supplies. I got the first really great shave in my many years of shaving.
One thing led to another, and I ended up browsing B&B, five new DE razors, five more brushes, 400 blades, roughly 20 different soaps and creams, and fifteen new aftershaves. I've been exclusively DE since April, and although I have learned a lot, I'm finding everyday that I have lots more to learn. Who knew that a mundane maintainence task could be more enjoyable by adding more work to it? What I used to do in two minutes takes more like thirty now!
