Friday Daily Question Thread (Newbie Friendly) - August 4, 2023 - WetShaving

This is the place to ask beginner and simple questions. Some examples include: * Soap, scent, or gear recommendations * Favorite scents, bases, etc * Where to buy certain items * Identification of a razor you just bought * Troubleshooting shaving issues such as cuts, poor lather, and technique Please note these are examples and any questions for the sub should be posted here.

I was expecting more people to be here once the Lather Games were over, but I totally forgot about Austere August. Are most of the users still over at reddit for AA?

Also, how were the LGs this year?

Are most of the users still over at reddit for AA?

I guess so: there are competitions, and prices to be won.

That makes sense. I really just forgot all about it.

I don’t believe that we will get an influx of people coming here after AA: Initial outrage is over, and things are going on on reddit as before.

That’s disappointing. I don’t think I’ll go back, which I guess means no more shaving community for me. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
