Thread: Barber Straight Razor Videos

Looking at YouTube clips of barbers giving straight shaves (it's almost always a shavette, not a straight), I was struck by how poor their lather game is. I would never get a comfortable shave from the thin, dry lathers these barbers are shaving with. After viewing about 10 clips, not a single one had made a dense, slick lather. Perhaps, they need to come here and gain some skills.

Health codes won't allow them to use anything reusable which includes the razor, brush, alum block or even soap puck.
Here is my son getting a barber shave for his birthday.



He looks funny to me with the blond hair. He had some idea he wanted to bleach it. It is normally red.
