    Hey guys,

    I am new to wet shaving. I have a total of two wet shaves under my belt so I am pretty close to virgin. :ashamed001 I had been using a mug and soap for years but never thought about shaving with a DE safety razor until I stumbled onto this gem of a resource. I received my new Merkur 38C yesterday and promptly took it for a spin. A slow spin at that! This morning went a bit better and I decided I better join in on on the fun here. Thanks to everyone who contributed to my new sickness. :happy102 j/k

    Welcome!!

    I think you'll find wet shaving more enjoyable if you don't shave under your belt. These razors work best when shaving the face :D

    Welcome! I also began my wet shaving odyssey with a 38C -- which was just the beginning of my RAD (Razor Acquisition Disorder). Love those Barber Poles!

    Thanks again for the warm welcomes! Third shave this morning and my neck is pretty smooth. Need some more work around my chin however.:ashamed001

    The Chebb: I have never tried any Havana Club rums... but I will be on the look out for them. It would be hard for me to pick a favorite so I'll list a few in my stash. I have some Cruzan Single Barrel Estate, Cruzan Estate Dark 5 yr, Mount Gay Extra Old, Gosling's Black Seal & 151, Pussers, Foxy's Fire Water and a few others that escape me. Do you think I have a problem? :o I usually drink with coke and lime or on the rocks.
