Hello from far east! I am currently living in South Korea, and have accidently entered into the wet shaving world. A few months back, I bought a Supply Provision single edge razor to give out as a present to my brother, which were never given, and since I had this weird looking razor, I thought I might as well try it on me, with a bloody result. So started the youtube and internet searching for the best way to use this dangerous equipment of mine and started my lonely quest until I found you guys. Now I have a few razors and a ton of soaps to experiment, including recently ordered Gillette super speed from ATT. I am still clumsy in shaving (still nibbing myself here and there) but the fun seems real to me and I hope you guys can give me some light.
