Hi all. I am 31 years old and have used an electric razor my entire life, never wet shaving once. I have always gotten ingrown hairs and irritation on my neck from using the electric razor, no matter which type I used. I started looking into other methods and came across the safety razor. Naturally, I was brought to this site and began lurking to see recommendations for starting out. After much research, I finally ordered and received an Edwin Jagger DE89lbl, badger brush, and WSP Gaelic Tweed shave soap (Green Irish Tweed is my signature fragrance). After watching Youtube videos on shaving with a safety razor, I decided to dive right in. This morning was the first wet shave of my life. Although it was not perfect and I certainly need to work on finding the right angle and technique, I loved it and still got the closest shave I have ever had on my neck. Just wanted to share my story and thank everyone for all of the great advice in this forum and starting my down this road.
