    After seeing this clip, I travelled to Athens from Australia, visited 1920 and had a Prohibition Wet Shave from this guy. I even sat in Harry’s chair! A truly great experience.

      It’s a middle eastern technique of pulling hair out of the skin. He pulls out the hair which is not strong enough for shaving. Above the eyebrows for example. So the hair doesn’t return as fast as shaving.

    I like your channel by the way the only thing that you're missing is to list the shave cream or shave soaps from each location that would help someone who is just getting into wet shaving, thanks

    But seriously, who are these people who thumbs down” HCH videos? What were they looking for that they were so disappointed that they got annoyed and down-voted the video?

    Very nice video in an extremely nice shop. The hot towel from the microwave is a pity...
