Hello all, I'm a newbie to TSD and to wet shaving as well. A buddy of mine gave me a muhle saftey razor for Christmas and now I have to go to therapy to deal with all the anxiety of choosing various accoutrements. In all seriousness what a wonderful hobby that I'm having a ball with. Finally decided to settle upon lord super stainless, proraso white tub soap, proraso white pre-shave, and nivea sensitive post (love the smell and it works very well). My brush is an escali from Amazon not crazy about it but it works I may be looking to restore an old bake light that I have my eyes on at the antique store ( I appreciate the length of handle and the loft). Pardon my long winded-ness but it's good to finally share with someone, anyone. Again thanks for having me and good day to the forum!
Welcome and enjoy the ride! Lots of tips and ideas here along with a lot of very knowledgable people to help with any questions you might have. It's fun hitting the antique shops, garage sales and flea markets to see what you can find. My best razor was a Slim from an antique shop for less than $10, so have some fun and go hunting! :bang:
