Wow. You jumped right to the head of the line with the feathers! Your gear looks like a good place to start. Have no fear, however....your ADs will kick in before too long!
Hey, that looks like a nice way to get things rolling. Some very generous members are helping me get started, too. I think I'm going to be bleeding enough without the feathers, though! GL.
too true, i just baught my very first straight and have the same tube of body shop cream, i reckon its pretty good stuff.
looks like a good start!
Shave-on!
Acquiring more stuff can be a fun little hobby, or even an addiction. It's more important to develop good technique & enjoy the shaves you are getting.
You have to work with what you have - or can reasonably acquire.
