Question For "Newbies"--How Did You Learn of SMF?
Desperate Googling: I was on a business trip with a busted electric, bought an after-market Mach 3, and spent the rest of that day trying to learn how to use it before morning. I found Wetshavers first, but was dissatisfied with the clunky MSN set up.
BTW, I learned about Corey Greenburg from SMF!

Same here, I had never seen the blog, the video or any other refrence before here. I actually only saw the video last week after someone posted a link.2clfrwrds wrote:Desperate Googling: I was on a business trip with a busted electric, bought an after-market Mach 3, and spent the rest of that day trying to learn how to use it before morning.

I thought it was a great video. It hit with more punch in the 2 minute or so time limit they have than a lot of other spots I have seen on that show. I also don't think he is a paid pimp as some may say. I think he gets something and gives a review. Hit or miss it is still one mans opinion. He gets ripped more than the Movie Critic that gave the original Star Wars one star (*) and said it was pathetic. I don't read his blog much because most of it seems like rehash but if it wakes people up to a better way of shaving then more power.

My daughter found it surfing around and told me I should pay a visit. These zombie threads are fun, especially when I fail to read the date of the last post!

I had been having a problem for years. With the modern multi-blade razors I was constantly developing ingrowns, particularly towards the end of the work week after 3-4 shaves.
I bought a fancy electric, same thing there, ingrowns developing by the end of the work week.
I remember googling ingrowns and finding SMF. After obtaining a DE it still took a few weeks to realize that I'm strictly a WTG shaver and strictly a single-blade man. No problems since.

I got here from Corey Greenberg's article:

Which, by the way, deserves a place in your poll.
