Greeting,
After a few weeks of lurking, I decided to join this great community and I hope, contribute to it.
I am 65 years old, retired and live in central VA. I have been using a DE for about 10 years, but only recently ventured into the world of pre-shaves, brushes, shave creams and post shave treatments. This site has been a wonderful resource- than you all.
Until recently I have been using a post-war Tech that was either my father or grandfather's- wish I knew! With retirement and COVID, I started concentrating of other aspects of shaving- beyond the razor. Shaves have been improving and I am definitely enjoying my every other day shave more.
I have also entered the delightful rabbit hole of acquiring more razors. I have been focused on solid bar Gillettes and recently made a flurry of purchases- mainly from Back Roads Gold (wonderful!). I know some folks prefer razors in original condition, but I really prefer a gleaming version!
I look forward to communicating with the wonderful folks at this site- the camaraderie is wonderful to see.
