Old Staight Razor Shaving Video

OMG, I was surfin' the web and found this old video from the Yahoo SRP days. I think this was one of the first straight razor shaving videos out there and it was originally made on VHS if that gives you any idea. It is a little jumpy. I had some chuckles watching this again and hope you do to.

Straight Razor shaving demo

Have fun.

Thanks Lynn! It was one of the first videos I saw on SR shaving. Learning from you folks really shortened my learning curve. Still learning.

Wow, six hundred members back then. The amount of interest and growth from then until now in SRP and straight razor shaving is stunning.

It's a great video - very encouraging and charming. Thank you for being brave enough to make it for us neophytes back then. I pretty much copied what you showed when I returned to straight razor shaving a few years ago. Ever considered making a new video? :-)

I did do the one in the DVD, but I am going to make some short ones for new guys on problem areas and a couple different razors including a couple DE's.

Still a fun road!

Thanks guys!

Thanks Lynn, I hadn't seen that vid in ages!

I like it.
One question though - how do you talk and shave at the same time?
I tried it the other day and nearly cut my own throat.

Thanks for the video Lynn, every time I watch you shave I pick up another small tip.

Yeah, Lynn, but in those Yahoo days everyone was shaving with a straight razor. Safety razors hadn't been invented yet. :rofl2:

Yes, Please make some short ones, can never have enough good straight razor videos! (I've seen a lot of bad ones.)

Hey Lynn, "up to 600 members"! The other thing that got me was you had a boar brush and a badger ....... two brushes in the shaving den ..... that was a loooong time ago. Also the one razor, the wonderedge, being your favorite ...... I bet that has changed ? No gray in the temples or sideburns either. :rock:

This was the video I used to watch before I got the dvd. Both are great videos.

Great idea Lynn!

Gosh, I remember when you put that out, Lynn. Brings back some good memories, thanks for posting.
