I have been really enjoying the board and I have realized that many of you still use alcohol based after shaves. I dont have a problem with that I just thought that most of the good stuff didnt have alcohol in it. So are we as "pro-shavers" supposed to avoid alcohol or not? :?:
I'm a complete newbie... but I also assumed drinking and shaving didn't go together. :shock:Quote:

I use Burts Bee's Bay Rum after shave balm and its great. :wink:
As long as there is alcohol in Old Spice, I will be using and alcohol based aftershave.
While there may be "supposed to"s on honing, stropping, and shaving, I sincerely hope there are no "supposed to"s with aftershave. I use what works.

If you really like it, you might want to stock up on it. I'm pretty certain that Burt's Bees has discontinued it.Quote:
