Hi just thought I'd say Hi . Have Been looking on here for a while and still unsure what to buy so will wait for some advice as so many great things about. Need to remortgage the house. Living 20 miles south of Norwich in Norfolk. Any help advise greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi and welcome, Carlos. There is a lot of advice and tips throughout TSR. Start with a simple set of tools, work on your technique and go from there. Feel free to ask any specific questions you may have.
 
Welcome.

Start off with a DE handle, brush, some cheap blades and some cream/soap and continue from there. Once you have your basic ingredients the quest starts. If you get truly hooked your first year won't be a cheap one put it that way but once you settle for your favourite combinations it will be much cheaper than cartridge shaving and much more satisfying and enjoyable.

No.1 tip from me: Visit Truefitt & Hill and Geo F Trumper websites. They sell sampler packs of creams, balms and colognes. That'll get you started with scents. D.R Harris also sell travel sized creams. Sample some scents then branch out.

TSR will be waiting to guide you along should you need any advice.
 
Hi Carlos and welcome to TSR, no need to be to worried get yourself a Merkur 38C some Gilette super thins and tub of Cella and one of Fido's New Forest brushes then you have a very good yardstick for future purchases and a set up that's hard to beat.
 
Welcome along Carlos!

It doesn't matter what you decide on for your first order, you'll soon be placing a second and third order [emoji4]
