I had a thought on how to get newbie’s rolling in the land of wet shaving. i.e. how to start, here it goes and I hope it helps.
OK all you lurkers listen up, been wanting to try wet shaving and searching online for it, here is instant bliss.
STOP right now………….turn the computer off and run out to Target (don’t worry we will wait until you come back). Get thy self the Proraso collection (cream, pre/post, after shave balm, and brush) if they have Aqua Velva and Toms of Mane get it as well.
While you are at it get a Gillette Sensor (should hold you over before you pick up a DE).
Now for the DE razor,may suggest a Gillette Super Speed (you can find IT on eBay or on this site!!? Check the shopping forum) also a Merkur HD (to be found all over the internet) It may be more expensive but it will be NEW.
Blades, Blades, Blades See LetterK and get a sample pack………………That’s it you have started the wonderful world of wet shaving now how to do it.
1. Read the Kyle’s Sticky's to be found on check in site, good info to get you started (that is why they are Sticky's.)
2. Mantic’s Videos (all of them) on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=2DB6D82F52BA7608
3. Finally, ask us questions, don’t be shy its ok operators are standing by. You have found the A-Team folks! Roll the theme music. The first 2 steps of info are not exact for everyone you will have to find out what works for you hense YMMV.
After your shaves have been mastered then let the SCAD, RAD, SBAD, ASAD begin (Marty will be along shortly to tell you why ).
