SHAVING EXPERT RECOMMENDS THE PRODUCTS COOLSHAVING CARRIES!
Weekend Today TV Show
featured a shaving expert who reported the current boom in traditional wet-shaving
products and techniques. This expert
said men were tired of the poor shave which TV-advertised blades were giving
them. In the course of speaking of
razors, brushes, and wet-shaving materials, this shaving expert recommends
many of the products Coolshaving currently
carries.
Here are his most
important points:
·
“The perfect shave is what all men strive for every morning
when they bring their razor up their chin – an effortless shave that’s baby
smooth, and without any of the usual skin irritation, redness, and that burning
sensation most guys seem to feel is par for the course when it comes to shaving.
“
·
“Why do so many guys find this so hard to achieve? Because proper
shaving has become a lost art …”
·
“It’s no wonder that the hottest trend right now in male grooming
is a return to the traditional wet shave.”
·
“Millions of men have been shocked to discover that the ‘old
fashioned’ method of shaving they thought went out with the Hula Hoop is actually
the best quality shave you can get.”
·
“Wetshaving gives you more effective shaves and better
looking skin … The key to proper wetshaving is keeping
your face as wet as possible at all times during the shave…”
·
“The perfect shave has three ingredients: a good razor, a good
brush, and glycerin-based shaving cream…” (NOTE: Coolshaving carries glycerine-based
shaving round soap; our soap contains both avocado oil to properly soften
the beard, and the same skin moisturizing ingredients found in a Dove Bar. Thus, your skin always feels refreshed after
shaving, not slightly dry and irritated.”
·
“A good badger-hair shaving brush is the single most important
ingredient in getting the perfect shave.” NOTE: We
agree completely! Our
pure Summer Coat Badger Brushes start at $23.99, and will last you 20
years if you allow the head to dry between use.
Our Winter Coat Badger (Silver Tip) has twice the capacity to hold
heat and water than the Summer Coat. Our brushes are twice sown rather than single
sown as our competitors are, giving you many more years of pleasurable service.
Our
badger brushes range upward to $87.50. The
Winter Coat Badger brushes have about 50% more bristles than a Summer Coat
brush, giving you a much larger head. As this shaving expert says: “Bigger brushes hold more water and tend to
make better lather faster and more easily.”
·
“The next tool you need for wetshaving
is a razor. And by razor, I mean whatever high-quality, NON-DISPOSABLE razor
you feel most comfortable with … serious wetshavers
use the classic double-edge (DE) safety razor! “
·
“DE razors are also the best choice
for African-American men, many of whom suffer from ‘shave bumps’, which occur
when their tougher whiskers are cut too aggressively by modern mutli-blade
razors, causing them to grow back underneath the skin and turn into ingrown
hairs … African-American men in particular find that shaving with a safety
razor clears up their skin and makes shaving a pleasure again. “
·
Recommends MERKUR brand German
safety razors – “The German company Merkur offers
a whole range of extremely high-quality, precision-made safety razors … a
reissue of the 1904 Gillette DE to the super deluxe $120 Vision, the coolest,
most futuristic-looking razor on the planet … The biggest bang for the buck
is Merkur’s $27 HD “Hefty Classic” safety razor
NOTE:
Coolshaving carries each of these MERKUR safety razors:
“Reissue
of the 1904 Gillette is Stock
#163,
“Super
deluxe $120 Vision” is our
#2000,
“Merkur’s $27 HD ‘Hefty Classic’ safety razor”, is our #178,
·
We carry MERKUR replacement blades
(Stock #219),
I use this blade and get 2-3 weeks from each blade.
“CAUTION:
if you’ve been shaving with a disposable razor or one of the modern multi-blade
cartridge systems like the Mach3, be aware that switching to a single-blade
DE will require that you un-learn all the bad habits that modern razors are
designed to let sleepy, lazy guys get away with. Mainly, that means slower,
more careful strokes, and guiding the razor’s head over your skin WITHOUT
PRESSING DOWN.”
