@BigmikeT1U 7 лет назад

great video Nick always loved your content you have such a personality about yourself when describing your shaving experiences.

@terrylentz7735 7 лет назад

Great shave Nick!

@Lexarf0rk 7 лет назад

I like the idea of the holiday themed shaves! Great idea... I might have to start myself.

@JonBonesJones84 7 лет назад

No one has the soap anymore! At least in the U.S. I'm intrigued by the aftershave bottle though. That looks pretty badass.

@stevielive 7 лет назад

Very nice Nick. I like that Satin Tip The Purest brush which is a great travel brush. Soft, great feeling! Happy Halloween!!!

@ridafett133 7 лет назад

Haha trick or Treet! Happy Halloween Nick!

@andrewhansen3044 7 лет назад

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Thanks! It was a fun shave

@ericburgos 7 лет назад

using my old school hallows tomorrow, i'm looking forward to it!

@brianb.2894 7 лет назад

Real nice "scary" Halloween shave nick Thanks.

@wolfc70 7 лет назад

I got the Standard razor through Bespoke Post 6 month's ago. I really like it. My other razor is a Edwin Jagger de89. I use Perma Sharp or Feather blades in the Standard and get excellent results. The Bespoke Post kit came around $45 and had shave cream and a alum block, shave towel, and blades (a decent value).The included NY shave Co Cream is so so. I definitely prefer Stirling or Caties Bubbles. Happy shaving!

@unctarheels5612 7 лет назад

You always make awesome looking lather!

@briandammpetersen22 7 лет назад

I like your view on products in general. Modern shavegear might work for some people, but just like you I have sensitive skin, especially on my neck, and I used to hate shaving. Investing time, and money (because it has become a hobby of mine), I get a much better shave now, and it is more enjoyable. Was actually forced to buy a Barbasol can when I was NY last month, since I forgot my brush at home. Nothing compares to a good soap :) Have fun looking pretty in November ;)

@Abhikpr. 7 лет назад

Nice I like the whole black theme shave. I went with hallows and a straight razor with black wolf whiskers synthetic. Log aftershave since that's the closest spice scent I have.

@rbrrhllngswrth 7 лет назад

What an awesome Halloween inspired shave kit. I feel like buying that kit for myself for next year's celebration. Excellent - keep it up!

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

+rbrrhllngswrth thanks! I thought it was fun

@jojnbarcelos 7 лет назад

good video nick like that razor and shave soap you used

@willcartershaves 7 лет назад

great shave nick...looks like u were having blade issues on the cleanup pass.....the treat blades are good but the dull fast....great shave

@Stoeff1987 7 лет назад

This brush tends to gather the lather at the bottom of the hair. It helps if you simply squeeze it a bet right where the handle meets the hair to get the lather back up to the tips.

@DismontDeSire 7 лет назад

Thanks for good review.

@BushmasterBlaster 7 лет назад

Great shave Nick! Eager to see your shave gear of the year video. I wouldn't be able to give up shaving for a month so I'm just growing the Mo'! #Movember

@marcopedrosa79 7 лет назад

Congratulations for your videos! You have loads and I haven't watched them all yet. Do you have some sort of aftershave comparison video? People talk all the time about Floid Vigoroso, Pinaud Gentlemen, Brut, Williams Aqua Velva or even Old Spice... which one of the classics is the best? Thank you!

@ortiz11039 7 лет назад

hey a long time viewer too!!!!

@sergeant816 7 лет назад

Nick. love your vids. I just ordered the simple black razor. you add it to your rotation any? my go to is a 1923 open comb gilette.

@Laggeros 7 лет назад

Do you use alum after shave on your skin or only to get a better grip?

@eugenegd2112 7 лет назад

Hey there Nick! I'm gonna start shaving with a double-edge razor, and I just ordered a Merkur 34c (a classic choice, haha). Do you think it's a good choice for a beginner? Loving your videos, keep up the excellent work.

@alcoholicmonkey1980 7 лет назад

Please do a review on the Derby Premium.

@richardclark202 7 лет назад

I love those treet blades. The first time I used one was right after I had used a Astra SP and on my first pass I didn't think it was sharp enough but by the time I go to pass two I really started to appreciate how smooth the blade was.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

These Treet blades are fantastic, I'd put them in my top 10

@richardclark202 7 лет назад

nick shaves have you ever tried then in your ikon slant?

@ManCaveTV1 7 лет назад

have you heard of the alum theory in how it has aluminum in it and it could damage the nervous system? I am a new wet shaver and I have sensitive skin and looked into using the alum. what do you think as a doctor of the alum theory? thanks and great videos!😀

@LonceJuliaSB 7 лет назад

Nice shave vid, once again. I'm traveling to Boston in a couple weeks, any good shave supply stores in Boston proper? can't seem to find any via internet. Suggestions?

@theclinger 7 лет назад

Have you tried Clubman Pinaud Lilac Vegetal Nick? Just wondering if you were chosen.

@Dor147 7 лет назад

Any PAA Bakelite razor review soon?

@nicholashernandez1494 7 лет назад

straight razor shave for beginning of December

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Maybe! If people want it!

@themonkeydoo3 7 лет назад

yes!

@theopapadopoulos7814 7 лет назад

Hi Nick, have you yet tried Bluebeards Revenge Shaving Cream? apparently it entails a formula that slows down beard growth?!?!

@BigmikeT1U 7 лет назад

Nick please do a review of the Lord L6 razor. I find this razor to be outstanding for the price if you have already reviewed this razor please direct me to that video thank you

@chrisryan8863 7 лет назад

Great video as always Nick. I used the Lebelle Pumpkin Spice soap today as my themed soap. I was introduced to Lebelle by you (not too many people know about that artisan). It is a really nice soap! I also like the Treet blades too (under utilized blade among other you tubers). I wouldn't say they are as good as Astra SP, Perma Sharp, Gillette SS or Personna, but they are in my top blades. Take care.Chris in N.H.

@BushmasterBlaster 7 лет назад

I enjoy Labelle Soaps, I have Two Roads and it performs wonderfully. I am waiting for the release of Komodo

@gregwagner9674 7 лет назад

you might want to check but I do believe the container glows in the dark

@EgaoKage 7 лет назад

I've notice that aluminum razors give great auditory feedback. This one seems to be no exception. A pretty talkative razor! :P

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

They do, and this razor was very loud. I like it! Lets me know how much hair is still around

@jakestreater4451 Год назад

Come back Nick😢

@salinaakther3811 7 лет назад

@alinisar7025 7 лет назад

@robthebruce_81 7 лет назад

hey Nick, have you tried the blades Grimm shave soap? it's got a great lather and a marshmallow vanilla smell.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

I have the soap! Just haven't used it yet

@robthebruce_81 7 лет назад

nick shaves you will definitely love it..it is really premium!

@coolciaran69 7 лет назад

This is the razor I use daily, I've tried a few razors just keep going back the Standard, just seems to work for my skin.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Its a great razor, I was extremely pleased with how it shaved. I plan to use it a lot more in the future and do a formal review

@pkj77 7 лет назад

havent done the bowl lathering yet still have some good foam left how do you know when the lather is " good " enough?

@scottyh1509 Год назад

Velvety, yogurt texture. Too little water and it will be thick, pasty, and "patchy". Too much water and it will be thin and "sudsy". Always load up the brush as dry as possible and begin the face lather, you can always add a little bit of water (sometimes drops are all you need, depends on the soap) as you go. If you add too much water, there's no going back...the lather is ruined.

@bstraub95 7 лет назад

Would like to know if you've tried the Merkur 38c. I picked mine up about a year ago. I'd like to hear you're thoughts and opinions on it. I love it.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

I have not. It should shave like the 34c though! Same head, just the bigger handle. I prefer smaller handled razors

@donfraysier5079 7 лет назад

Ha ha! Excellent gear.

@dc76384 7 лет назад

Id buy the aftershave just for the bottle.

@whitederek6 5 лет назад

What kind of razor/soap would you recommend if your new to safety razors ?

@nickshaves 5 лет назад

Hey man! I would check out the Merkur 34c, it's my favorite razor and perfect for a beginner. The soap is up to you, there are tons of great soaps out there. You may want to check out ItalianBarber for RazoRock soaps

@boots1302 7 лет назад

Any opinion on changing what hand the razor is in depending on what side of face you're shaving? Shaving left side of face with left hand would keep you from awkwardly reaching over with dominant right hand. Wondering if it's worth it to try to build up weak hand razor skills to avoid the awkward reach.

@ashtonmcmullen6799 7 лет назад

Jeff M i don't find it awkward at all to be honest... i find it much more uncomfortable to try to shave XTG in my non-dominant hand than reaching. just my opinion though.

@CMHobbies 7 лет назад

Jeff M unless you're ambidextrous, switching hands is asking for trouble. You want good control of a razor. I don't find it awkward at all. I just turn that part of my face toward the mirror if it's a reach across.

@daringlisson9353 7 лет назад

Nicely done. Will you be trimming the neck line for this upcoming month?

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Absolutely!

@daringlisson9353 7 лет назад

nick shaves I'll be doing the same. The wife bet me I couldn't go a month without shaving. So if I win I get another Brushguy brush. I'm allowed neck trims only.

@aaronfenner148 7 лет назад

Hey Nick...would this Standard Razor be a good one to move to from the Edwind Jagger DE89? I've been using that since I started and I'm thinking it might be time to move on to something new.

@ashtonmcmullen6799 7 лет назад

Aaron Fenner they're both very mild. if you want something more aggressive, i'd look at a different razor. if you like the EJ and just want a little bit of a different feel (weight difference, etc.), the standard will be a good fit.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

I agree! The Standard would be a good next razor, as would the Merkur 34c, or RazoRock Mission. If you are looking for something more aggressive, depending on your shaving style and how sensitive your face is, you could go with something more aggressive like an open comb or a slant razor. There are lots of good slants out on the market

@aaronfenner148 7 лет назад

Thanks dank! I'm not looking for a different feel necessarily, because I believe that I will get used to the feel of whatever the next razor is. If there is a better shave to be had with a little more aggressive razor, then I'm ready to "take the training wheels off" and move on from the DE89.

@aaronfenner148 7 лет назад

Thanks Nick! I'll look into each of those razors.

@sergeant816 7 лет назад

one more question brother. my gf hates any aftershave I use. what's a good aftershave that's simple and doesn't last long that you'd highly recommend? I'm a deputy so I have to shave daily.

@za336 7 лет назад

Maybe just go for cold water and some jojoba oil? :)

@scottyh1509 Год назад

"Moon" unscented post shave balm

@nikhilsuri99 7 лет назад

do you need a shaving bowl or can you just use literally any bowl from the kitchen?

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

You don't need a shaving bowl. For the first ~2 years of wet shaving, I bowl lathered a lot and just used a simple bowl from my kitchen, and it worked great. That being said, there are (obviously), specifically made shaving bowls that can help build the lather. Though they help, they are not 1005 necessary

@nikhilsuri99 7 лет назад

THAKS Nick 😀 and thank for giving me reliable shave tips My first EVER wet shaving kit and shavett has just arrived from the shaving shack on Friday ☺ so thanks again for showing me how to shave correctly (my dad never showed me) I got a blue beards shavett and a (cheap) "blue blue beards revenge 'Doubloon' bristles shaving brush £7 (Thought it was good for price along with good reviews and a lot of then agree thats it's a good starting brush)

@ProjectLangdon 7 лет назад

Hi Nick, Always wondered how often you change your blades? There is a lot of discrepancy of how many shaves you should have on the average blades? Cheers Enjoy No-Shave November!

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Honestly, I keep blades for 1-3 shaves. I switch so much between razors and blades. If I was going with one razor, and one blade, I would keep it for 2-3 shaves

@ProjectLangdon 7 лет назад

Cheers, Keep up the great content!

@mitch9139 7 лет назад

Not sure if it was the razor or the blade but you could really hear that there was a lot of hair left to be cleaned up on your cleanup pass..

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

This is a very loud razor, lots of audio feedback. There wasn't much left, but yes, there was some. This is a milder razor

@alexg7856 7 лет назад

That's one of my favorite things about the Standard. When you get the right angle it practically sings to you.

@FyterianTV 7 лет назад

Nick why do you do "No Shave" instead of actual "Movember"?

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

I have no idea, its just what my work does. Otherwise, I'd be doing Movember

@MylesC1234 7 лет назад

not doing Movember?

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

I am growing out my facial hair throughout November with work, then on November 30th we shave down to moustaches only. Not a traditional Movember...

@mitch9139 7 лет назад

30 days of not shaving to follow

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Hi!

@glytch5 7 лет назад

I don't get why companies make these season soaps but then tell you they are only good for one year...

@unctarheels5612 7 лет назад

Crixus The Gaul Ardbeg? Yummy yummy!

@BushmasterBlaster 7 лет назад

I believe if the soap is taken care of properly(dried after blooming, etc.) the soap will last years. Don't know why there is a 12m life on some soaps and maybe an artisan can chime in. Doesn't make sense that a soap would "expire".

@glytch5 7 лет назад

I asked the maker of First Canadian on Etsy, he said about a year, maybe a little longer if frozen to preserve it. I imagine it is simply all the natural ingredients... natural stuff goes bad it spoils/goes rancid. I refuse to have more than 4 artisan soaps at one time unless they are small samples. Stuff like soap in a tube, or big branded stuff like proraso is probably okay. I hear the hard soap pucks last a long long time as well.

@BrownManShaves 7 лет назад

@squatch545 7 лет назад

Halloween themed shaving kit? I think you have too much time and money on your hands.

@nickshaves 7 лет назад

Not much time on my hands, but yes, I do spend too much money on shaving gear

@CMHobbies 7 лет назад

Joe Smith this is nothing. You need to look at what a lot of the guys in the shave groups do. They'll have a different rotation for every day of the Holiday week.
