What makes a great straight razor shave
A straight razor shave is the oldest service in the shop and the one that most separates a barber from a stylist. Michigan licenses the blade, and not every barber in a shop holds the shaving side of the craft.
The blade is held at roughly thirty degrees and the skin is kept taut through every stroke. Hot towels bracket the passes to keep the beard soft, and the finish is alum or balm to close the skin down.
It is a slow service on purpose. Forty-five minutes in the chair, no clippers, no rush.
What to ask for
- Say if you shave daily at home - the barber will lighten the second pass.
- Ask for the neck to be done with the grain if you get bumps.
- Ask which barber on the floor does the most shaves that week.
Book for weddings, interviews and photos, or as a monthly ritual.
