Morning,
Some of you will know me from being an admin with the UKWSS.
My Dad taught me to shave with a DE on my 13th birthday, nearly 57 years ago with cold water.
He had bought me a Gillette Flairtip (B2 date code) which I still use on birthdays.
A daily shaver with the dreaded "Tabac" until I discovered that there was a whole world of new things around 12 years ago.
Now there are about 370 sets of soap/aftershaves, 90 brushes, 60 razors, 5,000 blades and 100 EDP's.
Since retirement 26 years ago, it's every other day for a 2 pass shave and it's still with cold/tepid water.
I've made some fantastic friends through the UKWSS and hope it will happen here as well.
