Hello from Colorado

[Shavin’ Yeti]

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.

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)
