So there has been a couple of shaving threads before, but none dedicated to straight razors. So post your pictures, questions, reviews, pre-shaves, aftershaves, techniques, tips, tricks, etc... If I didn't have to shave for work I would be creating a beard thread.
A nice cut-throat is on my list, but I haven't sprung for one yet. Gotta read up on which ones are worth the coin and which aren't. Sent from my iPhone 5s using Tapatalk
Yep. Just got two in the mail today I need to sharpen and get back to their owners. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
I carried one to my high school graduation, just in case they decided not to give me my diploma at the last minute. Don't tell Mr. Wienicke (he wasn't a big fan of mine, anyway; something about wrapping a pair of 1/2" ball bearings in the pink sheets of the underground news paper I was on... )
Straightrazorplace has a really good FAQ and beginner section. I spent some good money on a Giesen & Forsthoff but I wanted quality and shave ready. Also check out Dovo my father uses one and I hear nothing but good things about them. Were both fans of Proraso shave care products. My brush is a cheaper entry level brush, forget the brand got it for around 30$? @SAKPlumber I'll have to dig up a picture I refused to cut my hair or shave for a good solid year before I enlisted. I miss it.
I used to have hair...in fact there are still some unauthorized pictures out there...mostly used for laughs now
