Getting back into wet shaving

Whisker Assassin

Shave Newbie
Hello,

My name is Drew, and I've been wet shaving since 2006. Over the last few years I've sort of gotten burned out. I was just using the same razor for each shave, a Murkur 1904 (even though I owned about 5 razors). I was using the same blade each time (I bought 200 Treet Platinum blades a while back, and just used a new one after 5 shaves). And I was using the same soap and aftershave everytime (when I ran out of my tube of Proraso Blue I would just order a new one. Or buy a new bottle of Old Spice when I ran out).

But then Covid 19 happened, and I found myself at home more and looking for ways to enjoy more things at home. So I had a renewed interest in wet shaving! Since March I have added 5 new razors to my collection. I have ordered new soaps, aftershaves, and blades to try. Also I've started making shave videos on YouTube. Here's a link to my channel if you want to check it out: Whisker Assassin

I look forward to sharing more wet shaving information with all of y'all!

Take care,
Drew

Thank you! I bought my first horse hair brush, and first synthetic. Also my first slant, the Razorock 37. I'm waiting on the delivery of Clubman Sweet Rum and Tequila Tease to come in the mail. I'm excited to get started again.
