What is the best way to treat razor bumps?
ОтветитьHey Ash! Great video, and the channel too, I've discovered it just recently, and there is some really great advice. I switched to DE shaving about 5 months ago, and I really enjoy it. It's not a chore anymore, but a great way to start a day and de-stress. Carry on with the good work 🙂
ОтветитьPerfect shave is an oxymoron. The only times that any parts of me have been shaved in the last 50+ years were in hospital.
ОтветитьI allways carry a razor in my rucksack when spending days or weeks in the wilderness, it helps me feeling hygenic and to maintain mental discipline and high moral. Never skept a morning shave for the last 3 years, doesn't matter the circumstances 😆.
ОтветитьHi Ash, please could you stop making these videos, you are costing me a fortune 🙂. Seriously keep up the good work.
Ответить👍
ОтветитьTotally agree with the feather and mild angle awesome combo
ОтветитьHi Ash, How many shaves do you tend to get from each razor blade? Thanks, Phil
ОтветитьI know it’s been awhile, but today I used the menthol pre shave, Reuzel shave cream this morning. It was a great shave. Pretty close to shave nirvana!
Ответитьamazingly guided......i will shaving this way too
ОтветитьI use a Murke open comb 34c with a feather blade. Proraso pre shave Taylor's of Bond st Shaving creme with a Taylor's Badger brush.I do have heavy growth so I need an aggressive shave.
ОтветитьI love my Merkur future razor, with prorazo cream, feather blade and badger brush. Just can't understand why guys spend silly amounts on the multi blade brands and nasty chemical shave gels? I can buy 100 feather blades for £18 (might be a bit more now) it's a no brainer.
Ответитьit is a nice review but you mention two different number of Merkur Razor- 34 first and then 38 ! could you please tell me that which one i have to buy - 34 or 38. thanks
ОтветитьThanks ash I’m 57 . Been looking for this most of my life I’m going to copy you on this and buy the same
ОтветитьHey Ash! Greetings from Atlanta! I ordered all the elements used in your video via Amazon. The Merkur razor and the Proraso pre-shave arrived today and I had my initial shave. Wow, what a difference! My father taught me to shave 45+ years ago using a safety razor, but most of the time since, I’ve been using some brand of disposable, multi-blade razor. Those days are over! Thank you for making “old school” new again! Warm rgds, Geoff
ОтветитьFLORIS Special No.127 (1910) — originally “Orloff Special” (1890) — is an understated gem and an excellent choice for springtime.
ОтветитьGreat vid Ash. Have ordered some Proraso thanks to your advice. I also tried using post shave balm as a preshave substitute to Proraso and the effect was amazing: no nics and a great result. Thanks again and keep the content coming!
ОтветитьGreat video, Ash! Thank you for motivating me to get back into shaving with a proper razor.
ОтветитьI'm not sure a DE blade shave is better than say a mach3 but it's cheaper per blade and more relaxing so in effect its like a mindfulness class first thing in the am. Also, if you're shaving everyday with a DE you're going to have a fairly raw face come Friday
ОтветитьIt's a Merkur 38c Barber Pole razor paired with a Feather blade. In my view a 6.5 out of 10 aggression razor, but paired with a super aggressive Feather. For me it's the perfect marriage for day to day shaving. But for heavy growth the terrifying Muhle R41 with an Astra blade. Either way Proraso pre shave is an absolute must. Anything Proraso is out of this world to shave with. Another great video Sir!
ОтветитьExcellent video!!!
ОтветитьREUZEL is indeed the Dutch word for Lard but is a wink to Pomade ingredients from the past. Almost all our products are vegan, the rest is vegetarian because they contain beeswax or lanolin. Nice you've chosen our Shave Cream in your routine. 💪🤠
ОтветитьI'll slightly surprised that your perfect shave doesn't include a decent brush. I cannot have a good (let alone great) shave without one, regardless of the type of cream used. Great if it works for you though!
Loving the choice of Feather + a mild razor though - that's my go to.
Say, since deciding to pick up a kit with some of these products -- reading some online reviews, I came upon many who use Proraso Pre-Shave Cream as pre and post. Have you considered this instead of the Citrus Kiss ? Seems also to have moisturizing qualities, thoughts?
ОтветитьGreat content as always, I did a small fist pump at the mention of proraso pre shave as I use it too ( also as an aftershave balm works well too) as a sucker for all the products, I have the shaving cream, aftershave splash and balm all from the proraso green line, they are all excellent, but it will be searching out the reuzel products to give them a try. Can't match your Frankenstein razor combo but certainly will be adding witch hazel and citrus kiss to try list, always a pleasure to watch, what would we do without you!
ОтветитьGreat video. I have to try the lard too.
ОтветитьGreat vid Ash, a Franken razor nice. Not a fan of Reuzel but will try it once more to be fair and give it a chance. Yes language and your words elevate you more than clothes and things. Your speech and how you carry yourself speaks volumes about you.
Enjoy the warmer weather!

This was extremely enjoyable to watch.
ОтветитьI live in the Bronx NY, but I will shave outside on the block, maybe on the sidewalk 👍🏽 I’m searching my shaving nirvana
ОтветитьNice product cheers for recommending Ash
ОтветитьGreat razor and a good shave! 🪒 However, Ash, you are cheating yourself the pleasure of a good brush, and losing the benefits one adds to your quality of shave. Do yourself a favor and get a brush; some if the best are British made, too!
ОтветитьHi Ash, great shave! I use Reuzel as a preshave and then lather with, for example, TOBS. It works a treat. What do you think of this technique?
ОтветитьNo shaving brush?!?!?! That’s blasphemy old boy!! 😂 I’ve copied you in some of the products you’ve used but I’ll be hard pressed to give up me brush.
ОтветитьWhy do British folks shave and wash face in standing water? Vs. Running water.
ОтветитьAsh, you are shaving against the grain; your strokes up your neck are clearly against the grain : D
Thanks for the video, the Reusel as applied I thought would clog the razor, but it didn’t look to be the case. Have you tried face lathering it with a brush?
Great shave Ash, You mention Reuzel produce, You should try there aftershave, It holds lots of moisturizing elements such as Witch Hazel, Nettle Leaf, Rosemary & Horsetail Root. Fantastic on the skin, Its almost like a aftershave and balm combined, Lovely citrus fresh aroma to. Not that expensive around £9.00 100ml. Good luck and happy shaving.
ОтветитьThe problem with safety razor shaving there is a learning curve and you to experiment with razor and blade combinations to get the best shave for your face. But once you get it worked out it's dead simple. The only thing I would like to try is a double safety razor with a bar on one side and comb on the other. This gives a side to use for the first past and the other for the second and third pass. Unfortunately I saw it a month ago and haven't been able to find it again,
ОтветитьI’m originally from Connecticut, the “witch hazel capitol of the world.” The indigenous Native Americans discovered its medicinal properties centuries ago. My dad always splashed on some witch hazel after shaving and I do too. It’s a lovely mild astringent and skin toner.
ОтветитьNice shave, sir. I use electric shaver.
Thanks again for the good video.
Lovely! If you enjoy the actual shaving process, you may like to use a harder soap and a brush and lather bowl. A good local brand for you would be Wickhams. Cheers and thanks for the video.
ОтветитьNothing like a good shave. And I know we all have preferences for the preparation, but I can't see really enjoying the shave without working a badger hair brush into the small bowl holding a round bar of high quality shaving soap. In addition to that that, I prefer to soften my beard by either showering first, or using hot-wet towels for a few minutes.
ОтветитьDifficult to find selection of double edge blades in supermarkets and pharmacies these days. Please advise.
ОтветитьI use the exact same setup. (Except for the handle). I swear by the combination Merkur, Feather and Proraso. I too had been searching for the perfect shave because my facial hair is prone to ingrow, but with this setup all my problems are gone now.
ОтветитьAfter giving my face a nasty scar with a slip of my safety razor, I have gone back to my trusty Gillette five blade fusion proglide. I get a much closer shave with the five blade cartridges and no more horrible accidents.
ОтветитьA real chap always stands his ground, doesn't fall to laziness (like in the modern era) and shaves in any situation even if it means with icy cold water if that's what is available. I will look for the Reuzel.
ОтветитьI’ve been using reuzel for a good few months now , get the mousse astringent ash it’s a game changer
ОтветитьSo you don’t use shaving soap 🧼?
ОтветитьThank you for informing us about the Reuzel product.
I had never heard of it even though I'm from the Netherlands.
Nice. By the way, what did Boris want?
ОтветитьFloris 127 is BEAUTIFUL
