So it has been years since I joined a forum. I have been learning so much here that I figured I would participate.
I am 48 so I have been shaving for awhile. Hating it every single time and doing it the least amount possible.
About a year and a half ago I started looking into safety razors. Six months later (I am thorough) I bought a medium Henson AL13.
I already had an understanding of grain and growth pattern so my leaning curve was pretty short and gentle. Now I hate not being freshly shaved. I have tried a BUNCH of different razors and settled on a few I REALLY like and one in particular that I stocked up on (25 years supply).
I have used Cremo for years and still like it OK. I plan on still using it for travel in my DOP bag.
However, it is time to make things even better. I am ready to start using a brush and real shave soap. But, there is another thread on that.
Anyways, thanks for having me. I am mainly a reader and not a talker.
