    West Coast Shaving has a retail store in Chino Hills, iirc.

    I haven't looked but I imagine the Art of Shaving has a store in the area. Not to mention Crabtree & Evelyn usually carries some bowls and brushes. L'occitane, may as well. The Body Shop has a soap as well.

    In downtown LA, there is Ross Cutlery. I'm told they have some straight razors, I don't know about accessories. They also offer a honing service. You can find them on the web at Untitled Document

    I don't know of any local shops for brushes, soaps, accessories etc. yet (I'm in LA as well). Just starting out myself, I've done most of my research and buying on the web. There are a lot of good shaving websites that offer every product imaginable. It's a good way to get to know the products and what's available, as well as tapping into the wealth of information here on SRP.

    they just opened an art of shave location at the mall in Sherman oaks off woodman and riverside also. I just went in there to pick up my first kit. bottom floor, middle of the mall. I think they said that they are waiting on their license for the barber, but said they should have it by the end of the month.
