First SR On The Way!

[RandallMorgan]

I'm excited. I've been using a DE for a few years and finally decided to take the plunge into SR Shaving. I just got
my shipping notification from Whipped Dog for a Sight Unseen. Can't wait!

Congratulations! Did you snag one of their beginner strops too?

 

[Claudel Xerxes]

Nice! Many of us have started the exact same way. Larry is a great guy and a pleasure to order from. Congrats!

I'm sure you've already heard it quite a few times, but for almost everyone it takes dozens of shaves to become proficient with a straight. Be patient and enjoy the process of developing your skills.

Congrats! Now go refresh the tracking number.

 

[Razorfaust]

Congratulations on getting a straight. Good times await you.

Good deal, let is know how it goes!

Cheers, Steve

Congrats and welcome to the world of straights! I started with Larry as well and I still go back to his page from time to time to see if he has any interesting vintage razors for sale. I use his balsa strop all the time as well.

Good choice on the vendor. Good luck on your straight journey.

I pulled the trigger on one last night as well along with the poor man strop. I've been using a Feather AC SS since Christmas with outstanding results so I may as well go all in. Will probably use this whipped dog for weekend shaves.

I did thanks. Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

You better post a pic when you get it Mine's somewhere between Texas and California right now. Ridiculous that I feel like a 10 year old kid and I'm waiting for a 100 year old beat up razor haha.

For sure. I feel the same way!

 

[dmatcuk]

That feeling never goes away. I keep refreshing my email waiting for my Proraso preshave to ship haha!

 

[David]

Just wait until you start calling the local post office asking them to hold your packages so you can pick them up on the way to work.

Congratulations. I'm very close to ordering a sight unseen from him for my first straight razor too. I'm curious to see what you get!

That's the first symptom of RAD!

I'll post a pic here when I get home from work.

It came in. Excited to give it a go. Honestly a little afraid.
