Hello everyone, —————long time reader and first time caller. I spent incalculable hours on this forum reading through threads. I figured it was finally time to join the discussions. I’ve been a wet shaver for only six months but have gone a little nuts during that time. I’ll have to do a head count but have got at least ten razors (3 of them older), around a dozen brushes and north of thirty different soaps...............mostly from Stirling, and not counting duplicates. So I’m both passionate about this hobby and planning to cool my heels for a while before I end up shaving in a van by the river. L-L
Hello and welcome! Good job on acquiring just enough brushes and soaps! But your razor count seems to be lacking a little!
The next phase of my journey is creating a den. I originally thought it was a silly idea. I now realize it’s vital to the quiet relaxing experience AND a needed location to stash the growing collection of gear!
Welcome to the forum! Don't discount the idea that your den can be movable. A large tackle box, an upright cabinet - a den is more a place for your equipment that you can then use for the shaving experience. Your wife will love you if the only things actually in the bathroom are those things that stay wet (soap, brush, and perhaps the razor).
to TSD @Latherin' Luddite I hope you enjoy it here....Looks like your on your way to a great collection.
Welcome to The Shave Den from Kentucky. You're on a roll! There are worse things than living in a van. If you get tired of the river, you can move to the mountains!
Hello and welcome A van by the river, huh. Doesnt sound too bad, unless it's done from necessity. Best know your limitations, we've all been there.
Welcome @Latherin’ Luddite! Glad you finally jumped in. By now you know how this dance goes. Feel free to ask any outstanding questions right here in your own personal thread. Plenty of friendly knowledgeable folks will pop in to offer advice, opinions, even actual information. Out of your present gear do you have a favorite set up? What's your Unicorn - that Unobtanium item you are looking for that when found will be replaced by Number Next?
