Greetings! My name is Brian. I'm an older gent (57) who started DE shaving only about 10 years ago, then quit when my face was always nicked up. lol, I've recently started back up again, with better success this time. Only a few nicks. I'm using a Merkur Vision razor with Merkur blades. I'm also using a Savile Row Super Badger brush and Proraso green shaving soap. I hope to learn more and better techniques as I gain more experience. Thanks for having me!
