    Default Hess Hair Milk

    We've all seen the very good Hess razors and the ones I've seen have been stamped Hess Hair Milk Labs on the back. I recently found a bottle of the actual lotion for sale on ebay while searching for vintage aftershaves.Thought the members might like to see it as I found it to be interesting.It's item #160468072369 if anyone wants to look it up.

    This explains the "Hair Milk" part of the Hess Hair Milk brand. I had a sneaking suspicion that Hess made "soft" grooming and personal care products. This confirms my thoughts. Thanks!

    Call Hess in St. Paul, MN. Ask for Roger Hess JR. He has a bunch of old stuff like that in the upstairs parts warehouse.
    phone 651-488-7261

    P.S. The razors, hones and linen strops are all gone.

    By the way, that linen strop I traded you is AWESOME. Those are fantastic, and everybody should have one.
