Hello there!
My name is John and I have been debating getting into the wetshaving club for sometime but I have always been, quite frankly, freaked out! I am a 25-year-old man who has pretty clear, sensitive skin. However, sometimes my clear skin will be ravaged by an unsightly ingrown hair that leaves me very self-conscious. I pride myself on on exuding a healthy look and nothing is more unhealthy looking then an irritated red bump on your face caused by shaving. I never want to feel that horrible feeling again!
So, these are the things that I believe I will be buying to start my first weshave expereince - (please let me know if you believe I should start with a different product/tool)
Safety Razor - Merkur Classic Safety Razor or The Merkur Hefty Class (not sure on which?)
Shaving Brush - Vulfix #404 Best Badger Shaving Brush
Shaving Cream - I am thinking of trying the Proraso because I hear such great things about it, however, I am confused because I thought that wetshaving always includes a cream that is in a tub. Proraso is in a bottle, no?
I was also thinking about the Taylor of Old Bond Street Avocado Shaving cream.
Aftershave - Undecided, I would really appreciate your recommendations.
That is what I am going with so far...I could really use some help as I am soooo lost!
