I am a barber in the uk. I my self and my turkish employee both shave with a turkish shavette and we only use perma sharp blades from turkey they are the best i have used. We do head shaves also. I find there is not much call for it in the uk. Turkey there is a big demand and it is very cheap over there. I my self shave with a real straight due to health and saftey by law we barbers are not allowed to use straight's unless a client brings is own razor with him.
