the wet shave
Today, most guys use a multi-blade cartridge razor and a can of drugstore shaving cream. But the traditional "wet shave" is making a strong comeback. This
is the barber shop, old school method
which involves a badger hair brush, a tub of European shave cream and a double-edge safety razor.

Classic Shaving
For those interested in ditching their drugstore razors and cheap can of foam, this Palm Springs, California shop should be your first stop. If you're wet shaving for the first time, give these guys a call and they can set you up with some recommendations, but here are a few tips: The Merkur Hefty Classic double edge safety razor is a popular choice with first-timers. The Vulfix #2233 badger-hair shave brush is also a favorite. You'll also need a high-quality glycerin-based shave soap or cream. Musgo Real and Proraso are well-regarded and very budget friendly; Taylor of Old Bond Street and Truefitt & Hill are more high-end, classic options. |
