Hey Kerby, I completely agree having a shave with these kinds of products really makes our morning shave more of a pampering experience rather than a chore.

@diogeneslantern18 3 года назад

Lovely looking shaving bowl but quite frankly it fits form over function. A bowl ought to have a textured inner surface in order to assist the agitation of the bristles thus creating suds and lather. A $2 ramekin does a far better job at achieving this purpose.

@BuffaloNickel9 2 года назад

Exactly! that's a great comment...go watch his video on making a shaving lather. it's the most pitiful lather you've ever seen! That smooth oxhorn bowl is terrible I've had one and it was very bad for building a lather.. he put part of the clip in this video actually and it proved your point which is spot-on

@wormhole331 Год назад

The most efficient way is to face lather. Your whiskers and the badger hair whip up a lather really fast plus you get the benifit of hydrating your whiskers while doing it. Surprised he said a bowl is better.

@Ashurus Год назад

@@wormhole331 Well he's trying to sell the bowl, which is in fact looks very pleasant. I'm relatively new to wet shaving and have only been building lather on the face, is it really the best way?

I prefer feather blades . Made in Japan they cut like crazy.

@jz4461 3 года назад

Only downside is that they're so sharp they can potentially agitate sensitive skin. I pair my Feather blades with an Edwin Jagger razor that's not very aggressive so no agitation there. Astra blades were my favorite before Feather and would still be my recommendation to beginners

@claytonmarkin7863 3 года назад

He’s using an open comb razor which ups the aggressiveness of a blade pretty substantially. A feather blade works great with a closed comb razor, but can be a little much for an open. Also he shaves every day, so a feather might be a little much over time.

I'm not bald but I am VERY certain you can find videos on it. If not, you could always use a straight razor

@lordbushmills3089 3 года назад

I looked into Bulldog electric head shavers, but they were very expensive. I found a £30 version of a Bulldog on Amazon U.K. with attachments for clipping, head shaving and nasal hair. It’s brilliant and can be used in the shower, but as an ex-barber, I would say that it’s best used dry. You’ll easily find it on Amazon USA 👍

Your mileage may vary? ?, 6, No Break in time, 7, No need for a Brush Stand 8, Modestly Priced for its size. Rinse Brush in Cold Water and let dry.

@@janplexy badgers aren't killed to make brushes. They're a food source in China so the hair is a byproduct of that. Like making leather from beef cows. If they were killed just for the hair then I wouldn't use badger brushes but since it's just left over after being eaten then I have no qualms on using it.

You can’t wet shave every day unless you have a crocodile skin. That’s why still Gillette leads the market. I do shave every morning but there is no way you could wet shave daily with classic double blade shaver.

@Jack14432 3 года назад

Heriberto Castro am I doing something wrong? I have tried didn’t work on my skin. I wish it would work then I don’t need to buy overpriced Gillette blades.

@heribertocastro6652 3 года назад

@@Jack14432 The thing with Gillette Is that their multiblade systems actually cause more irritation and ingrown hairs than a safety razor or anything of the sort. The reason being is that assuming you use Gillettes most popular model, the fussion, your passing 5 blades on your face every single pass. So if you don't get everything on the first pass, you'll end up passing 10 blades on your skin. This obviously is very irritating for the skin. Not to mention the fact that Gillete blades work by pulling hairs out and having each blade pull out the hair causing ingrown hairs to occur more frequently. Wet Shaving is beneficial to not only your skin but also the environment. Each person is unique and different wet shaving set ups will work better or worse for certain individuals. It's all about finding what works for you.

@swe_nurse8121 3 года назад

@@Jack14432 Yes, you're probably doing something wrong. Most likely you're using a technique similar to cartridge razors where you need to force the razor with pressure to get it to cut. With a double edge razor you want some weight in the razor and just guide it over your skin. This technique is probably easiest if you learn it on your sideburns first (I did, while shaving the rest of my face with a cartridge razor for the first couple of times) because the skin is not as sensitive as on your neck, you can see everything you're doing and it's easy to stretch the skin (which is something you should try).

@Jack14432 3 года назад

swe_nurse I don’t push the razor at all, I am quite confident that I use the proper technique with DB Razor, but can’t shave every day with it. It makes my skin very weird after the third day of shaving.
