A friend of mine just read about this place in the National Post and sent me a message about it. Looks very cool, and by the description of his training, I'd be willing to give another Barber shop shave a try. Any you guys have experience here, thoughts?
I linked to the "About" page

If I could bring my own , or if he uses a rep straight, it might be fun, but the 2 times I've done a barber shave was with a shavette and the blades were not good , And I use a feather when I use replaceable razors, I dearly would like a shave in Livi,s shave shop. TcQuote:

I could bring my roll of straights and see what he thought about using one on me like you said, that would be cool.
My last barber shave was when he switched from a straight to a shavette and I don't think he had his angle right. Not a good shave, it was like he gave up on me. When I got home I lathered up and finished the job.
They have to use shavette type straights now due to health codes from what I was told. Ive asked a bunch of different barbers now and really none like them.
Also if anyone's in the Burlington area check out Village Cigar Co. & Barbershop ,they're amazing. Also Hamilton and Toronto both have the Crows Nest Barbershop and have heard nothing of good things about them as well.
