![]() ![]() There’s a reason it is called a wet shave! If a shower is not possible, rinse your face and then apply a warm moistened towel to your face for a couple of minutes, barbers don’t provide the hot towel shave for no reason! Never shave cold or apply products to a dry face as this is one of the leading causes of razor burn and shaving rash. Therefore, showering before shaving is the ideal way to ensure your beard is properly moist (I know some people love that word). Facial hair will absorb moisture up to 30% of its volume, and hair swollen with water becomes quite weak and easier to cut. If you suffer from shaving rash or any irritation caused by shaving (including in-grown hairs), spend some extra time to make sure your beard or ‘stache is wet. ![]() One of the most common reasons for shaving rash is actually because people shave before they shower (or bath). Showering before a shave has been around forever! All of this finished up with a lovely stand to hold the razor pre and post-shave, keeping the blades out of contact with any surface except your face, preventing any unnecessary dulling and chipping and extending the life of the razor blades. Along with this comes the stainless steel shaving bowl, the perfect, easy to clean container for whipping up a rich lather from your soap, or even just to hold your shaving cream before application. We have utilised modern technology to design bristles that stimulate and raise the beard hair and prepare it for the perfect shave. It has the look of badger hair but is not absorbent so dries quickly. The Dark Stag Shaving Set not only includes the quality SR1 Safety Razor, it also comes with the Dark Stag Shaving Brush, which is a modern synthetic badger bristle. A cheap blade is more likely to be a dull blade, which creates a lot of resistance and drag, pulling and tearing whiskers instead cutting them cleanly. A cheap razor blade will not have the care and quality control that a more expensive one will give, and in this area, price really is quality. And that’s not a hyperbole, cheap barber tools and equipment can basically ruin your face (or wherever else you are shaving). The quality of the barber tools and equipment that you use are everything.
