Hi all,
I’m Joe from Melbourne.
I started DE shaving about four months ago and am hooked. I shave every day and love the whole shaving process. Especially love the sound of my whiskers getting mowed down.
At the moment I am using a Muhle R89 with feather blade, which I think is an excellent first razor. Very forgiving. Once I have mastered my technic I would like to start trying some of my other razors. I use Proraso pre-shave and then Mitchell’s Fat Wool soap. It lathes up really nice for me and feels really good on the skin. I have tried Proraso Green soap and doesn’t even come close for me. But I really think the Proraso Green aftershave is awesome, nice sting and cool feeling.
I have best and pure badger brushes, but I prefer my $12 Omega Boar bristle.
I now have an obsession and have been buying a whole heap of razors, including some vintage Gillette’s. Through this obsession and Ebay purchases, I was able to make contact with a champion of a guy from SA. He suggested this forum, so here I am.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to reading others experiences and advice, and hope to offer my own experiences and advice as well.
