TV Ad from my country showing a barber straight shaving (badly)
This is an ad from the biggest bank in my country that's being broadcasted in these days. It compares straight shaving with buying stocks / bonds from that bank. It tries to give you the impression that you can rely on the experience of the bank just like you would rely on the wisdom of an old barber.
Well, to be honest, I wouldn't like that barber to give me a straight shave! Just look how he shaves the guy, specially around the 15th - 20th second of the ad!
The bank has huge profits every year, they should have hired a better barber/actor!

I wouldn't want him shaving me either, I can't understand a
word he's saying. Just kidding, but I see what you
mean with some of those exagerrated swipes he takes
with that straight.

Betcha 20 bucks that there was NO EDGE on that piece of steel. He was basically just scraping off shaving cream...![]()

Does he go horizontally shortly after shaving up the left side of the neck?
I bled a little just watching it.

Not only that, but the customer is chatting with the barber at the same time he shaves him near his mouth! What an idiot!
Of course not! All the ads about shaving, specially Gilette's use non shaving razors. The guys are already well shaved beneath all that lather that will be wiped off.
