Thread: N.E. Oklahoma Get-together part deaux

My brother says he thinks there is a very good chance we could use his place in Stillwater. It's an old 20 room 2 story from the 1920's I think on the OSU campus. It's basically a guy dorm, but there are a couple of large living areas that would be easy to use

My position is the same as before; I just don't know what's going to happen. My job is really kicking off that could tie up a saturday any minute.
I'd love to meet you guys in person. If it works out I'd be glad to give a ride or chip in for gas if passengerized from OKC, buy the first round or whatever. All I can say for sure is I'll make an effort to show up!

Waiting to see what happens with the weather. I'm part of the hurricane response team this year, so I may be deployed at any time. I know Saturday 9/27 is out, as is Saturday 10/25.

I would be in to meet up, especially if I might get to see some nice razors. I need to get my vintage one restored because one of the scales is broken. It would still have to depend on the time though because I do have another hobby that takes up a lot of time. Quick question why not meet up at a barber that offer straight shaves? There got to be some here in Oklahoma. I have heard that there is one in Tulsa but have not been there and am not sure where it is at. Just a thought.

Ulf I have only called Dewey the Barber who has been in town for several decades. He told me he didn't know of any that did, and I never pursued it. It would be a great experience though in my opinion anyway! I'll make a point to call a few numbers in the phone book and ask around.

I know Tony and Bill have some decent razors. I don't think I have any nice ones, but maybe a variety

I know of a couple of shops near my house that offer straight shaves. Barber Shop Corner on N. May for $15. They have a display case that has a bunch of straight razors & old shaving paraphernalia. They also sell brushes & soaps, but no razors. I believe shaves are with disposable shavettes.

That is correct Kyle. That guy gave me the most attentive, exacting haircut I've had in years. I forgot his name, and so far I've never made it back for a shave. Anyway i was really impressed with his self motivated perfectionism, as I was just a stranger with a vague description of what i wanted.

Which guy was it?

Harold is the guy nearest the door. Brian is the younger guy next to him with a lot of tattoos, one of which looks like a skeletonized lizard on his forearm. There was a new kid in the 3rd slot. There used to be an old man in the 4th chair, but I haven't seen him in a while. I forget the guy on the far end's name.

Hmmmmmm maybe we could have a gang shave.

So Kyle any other date besides the two you mentioned would work?

It was the youngest guy, with tats, so must have been Brian
