I just started wet shaving in August and love it. I’m here to learn more about this great way of shaving. I got into wet shaving because I was tired of underperforming, expensive cartridge razors. I really enjoy discovering new soaps and aftershaves ( so far I’m enjoying this a little too much). Looking forward to reading great posts about shaving.
 
Welcome. Definitely get in on that awesome new guy PIF going on, get involved and fall in love with the place.
 
I started with a 1951 Gillette super speed. Then found my birthyear Gillette super slim. Then wanted to try a new razor to compare with my vintage razors. Decided to get a Rockwell 6C and really like the shaves it gives me. Then last week stumbled upon a 1959 Gillette Fatboy and had to get it. I have been rotating razors every week, but the Rockwell is my favorite so far.
As for soaps, I have several from Stirling, two from Proraso, and a couple of singles from Barrister and Mann, Razorock, & Col.Conk.
My brush is a Razorock tricolor Italian flag Plisson. ( just ordered a Yaqi synthetic)

Boy howdy! Welcome. I was born in Colorado and learned to ski in blue jeans on the Rockies back in the day. Good to have you.
