Newbie Checking in

Hi,

I am 19, live in northern Indiana, live at home still, makes college much cheaper. I am a full time student. I am thinking of being a science or music teacher. I have always liked the "old" ways. I LOVE the outfits that you see in old pictures from back in the 40's and 50's. I play the violin, and I am also in a orchestrate.
I have only been wet shaving now for 5-6 days but WOW it's a BIG improvement to the M3 that I was using.

I have Z3 flare tip Gillette super speed and a 1940's Aristocrat with box. I got both of them at my local antiquity shop. The SS was $5 and the Aristocrat was $9.50. They had 2-3 more for full metal SS there and 2 or 3 with black handles. They also had a very nice Gem Jr. still in box, plus about 4-5 Gems or the equivalent. As for blades I am just using the Walmart one, they start with a P.
As for brushes I just have a Sally's beauty supple store brush. I get a good lather, but I think I could get better if I started using RO was. The house is on a well so the water is VERY hard. I might get a badger hair brush in x-mass but I am not sure yet.
For soap/cream I tryed the Williams mug one, but it dried out my face to much. Now I am just using a glycerin soap from my local Co-op. I JUST placed a order for Truefitt & Hill big samples pack, the run that is $14. I used the 25% code that I saw on here so it made it a very good price. I think I am going to get the TOBS sample pack that in the shopping forum here. I just have to wait for PayPal to post.

Well that's me in a nut shell.
Peace!
