Just started reading this thread and I face the same issue with TS. Anyone can reommend me where I can go to purchase all of the equipment to try these? Currently using the supermarket stuff so curious to try out and aim for a cleaner shave

What is your budget?

You can get nice badger brush, stand and bowl on AliExpress

Soap I like menthol if you like it in the hot weather try proraso shaving soap. Easy to leather

Razor for starter I recommend Rockwell 6C.

Fatip open comb is pretty aggressive can give very close shave. don't own one but I do won the Muhle R41

Is budgeting RM200 enough? Otherwise, I can always double it. To me it's more about achieving a smooth and close shave that matters most. I saw the link to the Rockwell 6C, that looks good. Any places I can purchase similar types razors locally? Would like to go to the shop and check them out.

no sure if there are any shops that lets u test out on your face locally or Singapore.

for aggressive razor, are you willing to take more time shaving?

Not looking to test on my face but at least have the product for me to see or view it I guess.

Trying not to spend too much time shaving as well haha. Unless you guys here say that old school way is definitely slower than those Gillette mass produced types?
