Hello from Virginia. Here are a few pictures of my shaving den.

Hello & welcome from another newbie.

Nice collection! And yes, Brickell is great stuff. Their mint bodywash, shampoo & conditioner are awesome.

Just need to do something about that electric toothbrush....try a Curaprox manual, you're teeth & gums will thank you.

I just looked up Curaprox online. I had never heard of it, but it looks good. I generally like anything made in Switzerland. I may give it a try!

Looks like you've already caught a bad case of SAD.. unfortunately this place will only make it worse

I've exchanged one case of SAD (Standard American Diet) for another! I'm on a ketosis diet, with no sugar, which I think makes me look for alternative sources of enjoyment, such as shaving and buying shaving stuff. LOL.

Greetings from another newbie. You've got a nice collection there. Always good to keep a couple of cartridge razors handy for when time is an issue.

Yeah, sometimes it's nice to press the easy button.

I'd been using a Braun electric toothbrush since 2002 and when I switched over to the Curaprox noticed a change in my gums almost immediately. I tend to be an aggressive brusher and was doing a number on my gums even with the electric. The bristles on the Curaprox are much more gentle but still does an amazing job. An added bonus is when the brush is worn out its perfect for cleaning razors

Good luck with the diet. I tried the paleo for 2 months but gave it up, was craving processed carbs too much xD

It looks like the London's in Williamsburg has closed, but I saved the website to my bookmarks.

The best places that I know of in the DC area are The Grooming Lounge, The Art of Shaving, and Truefitt & Hill. I buy most stuff on the internets.

I wish we had something like Pasteurs Pharmacy in NYC or Q Brothers/Merz Apotheke in Chicago.

Since nobody else has said it I want to compliment you on your travel kit.

Seriously, we are a very bad lot.

Welcome, and happy shaves,

Jim

Welcome aboard the bb

Nice collection. I notice quite a few TOBS tubs there and a few B&M's. Most notably the Fougere Gothique.....Once you read that quote, you tend to not forget it

I spent some time today reorganizing.

Nice stuff man,welcome. I saw Weleda's cosmetics nearby what do you think about their shaving cream?

 

[HowNotToGrowABeard]

Thanks! I really like Weleda's aftershave and face moisturizer. Their shaving cream is brushless, so I really don't use it very often, mainly when I travel.

I don't like their men's toner. It doesn't smell good. I much prefer Thayer's and Humphrey's witch hazel, as evidenced below. LOL.

 

[Whilliam]

You definitely have "the right stuff!" Welcome and enjoy.
