Hi Kevy- Very nice shave today- thank you! The Nivea products all look like great performers. Hope you have a great weekend and all the best in the week ahead!
Hi Kevy still at the point to purchase a new razor ,you recommended the Outlaw over the Lupo. I have one more for you the Outlaw or the Karve. Thank you for your comments.
That’s pretty amazing that little amount of soap creates a lather like that. I’ll have to pick some up at our pharmacy! Nice! As always, a great shave Kevy! 👍🏻💈
Cheers! These brushes are great. Shame he doesn't make them just now. I li,ed the Nivea although I wish I'd applied more to get a denser lather. Next time. All the best. Kevy 👍
Im not sure if they overly work. But I read a forum post that a guy mentioned on B&B forum that a womans magazine said the way you treat your skin pre-40 years old is evident after.
Hey Kevy, I want to try your favorite Nivea cream. I have used Maca Root for years and love it, but wanted to try a Nivea cream. Any one in particular I should try? Thinking you love the sensitive one, as I have seen you use it a few times. Thanks, bud!
Yeah, I would go with the Sensitive Nivea cream. I'm not sure if I've tried the normal one, but the white tube sensitive version is just great. Cheers. Kevy 😀
A nice shave, managed to grab a couple of these Nivea body shave sticks from Poundland, yes u guest a £1 each, seen them in SD for about £3 or £4. Take care. Cheers🍻
That's a really cool looking brush handle. I learned from you to keep rubbing my face with the brush for awhile to get a great lathering on my face. Cool stuff brother...
A bittersweet farewell episode to the Rex. I can't imagine how difficult it will be to pack it up, and send it away. I'm sure Martin will be happy to see it.This must have been a life changing fortnight. You were able to put the Ambassador through every test. I've never seen a shave were the aggression was turned up between each subsequent pass! This razor is the dog's danglers! The price is an arm, leg, and 3 fingers. I hopeyou decide on adding one to your arsenal. Cheers my friend, enjoy your weekend.
Hey Alex. I'm sure Martyn will be delighted to get his baby back. It's his favourite razor. I wanted to try it on every setting. Great razor and great fun putting it through its paces. I'm not convinced on it just yet due to the issues I had with the adjuster. Hmmm.... Have a good week ahead. Kevy 👍
I really like that shave stick! I found it at CVS for $5.99, plus I had a $2 off coupon. Lots of lather. Could be a bit slicker. What to hang in there after that Feather cut! Been there; done that. I like the Proraso Gel for nicks. Works like a champ!
It's $250. I'm not sure how much it will be when it's sold here in the UK, but I'm in agreement with you, for that money I want the dial to be clickable or lockable in some way. Cheers. Kevy 👍
I haven't got one yet Jon but I'm waiting on the O4 ones coming out and I'll be getting one of those as that's the same as my birth year Gillette. I've got the cash waiting! Lol! 😀👍
@@kevyshaves4109 I purchased last year and sold it, regretted ever since! Can you explain how this is your birth year? Is it just because your birthday is in the 4th quarter?
The old Gillette razors have letters corresponding to the year. So a D3 is from the 3rd quarter of 1958, meaning it was made sometime between July-September 1958. Each year has a different letter G would be 1961, K would be 1965 and so on. The letter O is my is birth year of 1969 and I was born in October so that would be the 4th quarter, so my birth year Gillette razor is an O4. The Rex Ambassadors have the same codes, that's why I'm waiting on the 04 Ambassadors coming out. Hope that's understandable! 😂
Hey Kevy. Great shave! I also use the Nivea products and are excellent. I also use the ASTOR blades quite a lot. I would like to see a shave from you with the Feather stainless steel razor and why not with the ASTOR blades and see what you think. Does the Feather stainless steel razor worth its money? What do you think?
Hi Kyriakos. Thanks. Nivea products are great. I don't own the Feather AS-D2 stainless razor so I can't video a shave using one. I've heard that they are great razors but they are quite mild and quite expensive. I think you can get a better razor for the price. Have a good weekend. Kevy 😀
Great shave kevy apart from the giantic cut on your tuf Scottish skin so how was it when you used it on 6.5 and it's been quite a while since your last video.
How sweet of that razor to give you a nice kiss goodbye lol. A back sack and crack would probably have scored you that razor. I doubt Martin would have wanted it back after that 😂 Great shave Kevy, have a great weekend mate 👍👍👍
Hi Kevy,What do you recommend between Nivea shaving gel and Nivea shaving cream using a brush, which of the two gives better results and is better for the skin? Thank you
Always liked the Nivea men products, when I couldn't find the shave cream I went to the Gel's (don't get the Foam, it's soupy after a while even with a good shake). Even those are really nice, reasonable prices as well. Of course that's here in Canada. Nice review glad you liked it.
Wow,you really tempted fate there with the Rex on 6.5 and on 3rd pass.It was still a very nice shave.I may have to get the Rex A. sometime soon.I do like Nivea and its available in the States .I was wandering also if you ever used a Schick Injector?It is becoming one of my favorite razors as of latelty.
Hey Troy. It felt aggressive on 6.5 but it was still very smooth. I wish Nivea would release the 2 phase in the States so that you guys could have it, it's incredible stuff, really good. I've never used a Schick injector razor but it's on my list to buy for my collection. Cheers. Kevy 😀
4:50 XDDD. UA-cam Red! XD. There's one thing I've always wanted to ask you about your adjustables. You start on the heavy growth with a mild setting, then, open up the blade gap with the higher setting for the shorter stubble close to the face. Why? Seems like the opposite to me. I would think the closer you get to the skin, the milder the setting should be ...less blade gap ...no? Am I missing something?
Well, like I always say, there's no right or wrong way in shaving. I usually start higher then dial it down. I just wanted to try it the other way to see how the Rex would perform using it that way. Cheers. Kevy 😀
Hey Don. Personally, I think the cream is better than this stick. As this is aimed at body shaving, there might be something slightly different in the ingredients than there is in the cream. The stick is ok and the scent is the Nivea classic scent if you enjoy that, which I do. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
I have the 3one6 with a Derby blade. Cut myself up. Will try again to shave 🪒 again after four day’s to see how my face feels. My fave is use to using Rockwell blades. See what happens aging later
Just curious, the progressive approach from 1 to 6+ was something I've not yet been brave enough to try. I've felt the opposing approach of starting more aggressive was a little safer. Do you generally progress to a more aggressive setting with adjustables? The other comment I have is a challenge. 😉 Try a Perma Sharp blade more than 3 times. I bet you will be very impressed.
I'm with you, Doug. I've always gone the other way -- more whiskers to cut, the wider the blade gap. I use the dial for the amount of days I haven't shaved -- #3 for 3 days without shaving. Then I always dial it down from there since there's less hair. It's worked very well for me.
Hi Doug. I do usually use an adjustable on the higher settings and then turn it down for subsequent passes. I just wanted to try the Rex the other way as it's such a smooth shaving razor. It still felt really smooth at setting 6 but maybe my lack of concentration at the high setting caused the cut! A Perma-Sharp more than 3 times...I'll give it a go. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Nice Kevy! It's sad to see the Rex Ambassador go. I have to admit, I jumped, too, when you cut yourself. That looked like a bad one. I've always used the dial the other direction -- the wider the gap, the more blade exposure, the longer I've gone without a shave. So, on my Parker Variant, I will set it to #4 if I haven't shaved in 4 days. Then I dial it down as there's less hair to shave. It's worked very well for me. Have a great weekend!
Hi Jack. Yes, it's gone back to it's owner now. I'm still undecided if I want to get one sometime. It was a nasty cut. I usually do that with adjustables too but I wanted to try it the other way with the Rex, just to mix it up a little. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great looking shave Kevy! I don’t have the Nivea stick but I do have the moisturizing cream that comes in a tin and have used it after I was done with my shave right after using an aftershave splash also without an aftershave splash and I find that it does a great job moisturizing. The scent is pleasant as well. May your day be filled with delicious haggis, neeps and tatties. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hey Frank. Thanks for,the kind words. I forgot about that Nivea cream. I finished mine a while back. I need to get some more now, it's great stuff. Cheers. Kevy 👍
You beat me to it, but I was going to do a Nivea shave too. I ended up doing one, and recording it. Also, I quite like your system for knowing how many times a blade was used.
Aww, I'm really sorry Don, I didn't know you were doing a Nivea shave too. I'll check your shave out. It's a good little tip for the blade useage. Cheers. Kevy 👍
The Nivea shave stick looks really good, even with only 3 strokes ;-) Mrs. M. won't let me buy any more shaving stuff but I'm sure I'll get one when she's not looking.
Fantastic video and shave Kevy. I see all goes well with the Rex. I think,for me, it’s a little bit expensive, but if people like it and can afford it then use it. Lol. Have a great day and cheers.
Cheers Kirk. If that dial was clickable or able to be locked in some way it would be my perfect razor. It's a lot of money for me to spend if it's not quite right for my shaving experience. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Love the videos Kevy. Very entertaining and informative. That cut appears to have been caused by a sideways action with the razor causing the blades edge to slice across your upper lip. Been there done that. Anyway keep up the good work.
Nice video Kevy. Ouch! I felt that cut through the screen, "feel-a-vision" the newest thing...lol. Seriously though, looked like a close shave and the Nivea products look good as well. Can't get certain Nivea items here in the states, would like to try the two phase but no joy. Heal quickly. Enjoy!
Thanks Terry. It was a stinger of a cut! I don't understand why the Nivea 2 Phase isn't available in the States. It's such a great product. I hope you guys get it ther soon. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Kevy Shaves The people from Hamburg at Nivea=) „Protect and Care“ is a new line of them. You used the shower gel before, as said in the beginning of the video^^. But I have to admid, that the old shaving cream was better. The newer formular of the shaving cream is now in their „Protect and Care“ line. You can combine this with the „Protect and Care“ aftershave balm nicely.
Tis certainly true that every shave won't be perfect and there will be the occasional nick or cut but GOOD GRACIOUS that "SCREAM" was definitely unscripted! I ain't never heard a wet shaver wail in such pain.... And being the sensitive lad that I am had the best laugh I've had all month. Your sacrifice did not go unappreciated. Thank You very much...
lovely to catch one of your shaves again mate! i keep putting the REX into my shopping cart over here as Beardandblade have them on pre-order at the moment for $299AUS! It will in all likelihood end up in the den! lovely shave buddy!
Kevy what’s your wife say about you smelling way too much Scottish Nivea, does she used Nivea shaving stick to shave her legs and having a good belt of Scotch Whisky 🥃
Great shave. I'd rather you kiss goodbye to the Rex Ambassador with a tear in your eye, knowing that you had great times with the Rex Ambassador. The Nivea Body Shaving Stick would be a good choice for a body shaver, but I'll be using it for my face to see how it will work
I'm sad it's going back but I have really enjoyed it. I'm still not convinced due to the issues I had with the adjuster moving. We shall see... The Nivea stick is good. It creates a mega lather! Let me know how it works out for you if you try it. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great video Kevy! It surely didn't look like your traditional Dr. Lather look. Nice razor but I'm not sold on the $ tag of it. Thought that nick was going to be another Braveheart scene. Great product review.
Cheers Tom. No, it wasn't the usual Father Christmas Kevy lather! 😂 I'm not sure about the raOr either for that money. It's the adjuster dial problem that's putting me off it. Shame as I live thenshave it gives me, so smooth. It was a nick of Braveheart proportions! Lol! All the best to you and your family. Kevy 😀
excellent shaving! Very beautiful razor. As it seems to me, this razor is a clone of the French adjustable razor Gibbs. Anyway, looks really good. Thanks for video (and sorry for my terrible English)))
Happy Friday evening Kevy! I will be sad to see the Rex Ambassador series coming to an end. Quite true...you can only use those Feather Hi-Steel blades three 3 pass shaves before they go to crap! I have an inkling that the body stick is aimed at Manscapers. lol..."Back, sack, and crack". Magic. I wish I had the funding for the Ambassador razor...it will be a collectible in 60 years. Pity I will be dead in 30 years. Damn. Ouch, Kevy...that was a good one. Where is your Proraso super-glue? That will seal that cut. Nivea aftershave lotion is thick enough to help seal that gash under your nose...hehe. All-round nice shave. Take care Kevy.
HeyTodd, sorry I'm a bit late in replying. It was great fun using the .rex. I love this razor but the adjuster dial issues I had I seen the only thing putting me off spending all my cash on it. Maybe they will make it clickable in the future and then it would be my perfect razor. I was liking the Feathers again. To be fair it was an error on my part...crap technique! Lol! The Proraso super glue wasn't enough! I held the styptic on there for around a minute before it stemmed the bleeding. Still, a good enjoyable shave. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Yes, the razor could be improved in some way. I suggested a tightening ring/lock nut. I think it depends on the razor for those Feather blades. Wrong razor and they feel like hacksaw blades. Good ol' styptic...I hope it is healing well.
Hey Kevy I just bought myself that Rex Ambassador, the N Model and the dial on that model works really well no problems yes I know it’s not cheap but since I backed out of the Rockwell Model T do to to much BS and endless excuses or delays I told Rockwell to sod off. No regrets on the purchase as it will be my last razor that I’ll ever order so now it’s down to my Karve Razor and the Rex love both razors anyways Happy Holidays to you and yours and all other Wet Shavers out there.
Your funny as Hell brother. Loved to have a beer or drink one day maybe if I'm ever your way .lol probably never happen , can't afford it flying. I drop the hammer and order that Razor Rex. Ambassador $$$$. Looks great. I just hope my wife doesn't find out how much it cost but it's going to be my special gift to me . Ok Where do you buy that cool brush at ? Website?
Cheers William. Oooh, you ordered a Rex? Good for you, you're secret is safe with us! The brush is from a guy who's local to me. He doesn't make brushes just now as he's really busy with his day job. Maybe in the future he'll get back to making brushes. Search for icshavingbrushes on Instagram. Cheers. Kevy 👍
I could never get a decent shave with cartridge razors and just one pass.. At least two passes were needed...wet shaving was a better thing to do, together with a far better result.. Much happier now
LOL... a brave experiment with that stick, Kev. You're the Chuck Yeager of wet shaving! Pity Nivea don't make a proper face shaving stick - After using the cream, I'd be in it. LOL...Back Crack and Sack wax is terrifically popular in 'metrosexual' circles...I'll pass though LOL. Keep up the good work mate! Totally enjoy your viddies.
It was worth a go Mark! Yes, the cream ingredients in stick form would be great. I don't think there's enough wax for my crack! Lol! Have a good week. Kevy 👍
great shave Kevy...sorry about the cut...looks nasty....do you accept American Express...just so i can prep for the back...sack...crack....lol!!!.....my friend got one of them sticks.....dried his face out....maybe because its for body,it has slightly different ingredient list..... take care mate.....Mark
Mark Chew Thanks Mark. Cuts happen, nothing that the styptic fixed. Ha Ha, American Express, that'll do nicely!😂 it didn't dry my skin out but I thought it could've been a bit more slick. Nice scent. Enjoy your weekend. Kevy 👍
Body builders shave their whole bodies. I shave my legs, thighs, arms, nether region bikini line etc lol I have no back hair or chest hair though hahahhahahahahhahah
Weight lifters...swimmers....and divers...any sport that requires reducing air drag over body surface..and gay men shave their bodies..but they just do it for trolling shirtless at the beach...lol..step son was gay...love Nivia products...always part of my shave's ..wish I could get the new half and half shake and mix..not sold In states How's Riley....you can send me the razor when your done..promise to send it back..in 2024..should be done with it by then...How's the acting and stage career doing...Missed you at the awards...well give Riley a cuddle and a treat...till next shave..cheers!💈🎸👍🏻
Oh well, just as well I'll never be shirtless at the beach...at least not without my bra on for my moobs! Lol 😂 Nivea stuff is good. I don't think they make a bad product. I wish you could get the 2 phase, it really is great stuff. Riley is doing great. The razor has gone back to its owner now. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Nice razor 🪒 and the brush looks so 👍🏻 nice. Thank You. For sharing. Good review Kevy!
Great shave Kevy! Love how your videos are just down to earth, nicks and all! Loved the video.
Thanks James. Nicks and cuts are part of a shave sometimes, although I wish they didn't happen! Cheers. Kevy 👍
That IC shaving brush looked amazing! Great video, Kevy!
Love nivea products...it would be perfect to finish with the nivea edt which i cant find here in greece
Me too! I don't understand why Nivea aren't selling the 2 phase in every country. Cheers. Kevy 👍
O wow that brush i need one just like it where can i get one i need the link please
Icshaving brushes on Instagram is what I used. Kevy 👍
Thank you but i dont have an instagram😞
I think that's the only way to contact him. Let me try and find out for you. I know he stopped making brushes for a while. Kevy 👍
He's not making brushes at the moment. I'm sure I've seen other brushmakers using the same handle I'll let you know if I see one. Kevy 👍
Thank you much Kevy
Hi Kevy- Very nice shave today- thank you! The Nivea products all look like great performers. Hope you have a great weekend and all the best in the week ahead!
Mike H Thanks Mike l. Have yourself a relaxing weekend. Kevy 😁
Hi Kevy still at the point to purchase a new razor ,you recommended the Outlaw over the Lupo.
I have one more for you the Outlaw or the Karve. Thank you for your comments.
Karve will give you more options as you can buy whichever plate(s) suit your needs. Cheers. Kevy 👍
That’s pretty amazing that little amount of soap creates a lather like that. I’ll have to pick some up at our pharmacy! Nice! As always, a great shave Kevy! 👍🏻💈
Great shave Kevy! Love the look of that brush. Sure glad the Nivea shave stick worked out for you. Hope you have a great weekend
My face didnt get on with the Nivea cream so don't think I'll get on with the shave soap. I think it's the camomile my skin doesnt like.
Cheers! These brushes are great. Shame he doesn't make them just now. I li,ed the Nivea although I wish I'd applied more to get a denser lather. Next time. All the best. Kevy 👍
That's a shame Chris. Do the balms work for you? Kevy 😀
Chris James the creams were ok for me, just that damn stick, lol!
Im not sure if they overly work. But I read a forum post that a guy mentioned on B&B forum that a womans magazine said the way you treat your skin pre-40 years old is evident after.
I bought 3 sticks today on-line. Given how little you used Kevy, I will need to leave 2 of them in my will.
Nice one Kevy, I do love the Nivea products so I may have to pick up some of those.
Thanks Bill. I think someone said you can get the shave stick in the States now. Cheers. Kevy 😀
Thats awesome now they just need to get that 2 phase aftershave over here.
Hey Kevy, I want to try your favorite Nivea cream. I have used Maca Root for years and love it, but wanted to try a Nivea cream. Any one in particular I should try? Thinking you love the sensitive one, as I have seen you use it a few times. Thanks, bud!
Yeah, I would go with the Sensitive Nivea cream. I'm not sure if I've tried the normal one, but the white tube sensitive version is just great. Cheers. Kevy 😀

A nice shave, managed to grab a couple of these Nivea body shave sticks from Poundland, yes u guest a £1 each, seen them in SD for about £3 or £4. Take care.
Cheers🍻
Can’t find that Nivea 2in1 in Canada so next time I’m in the State of Washington hopefully I can find some.
I hope you find some somewhere, it's great stuff. Kevy 👍
Jeez Kevy I had tea in my mouth when you mentioned a back, sack & crack 😆
😂
That's a really cool looking brush handle. I learned from you to keep rubbing my face with the brush for awhile to get a great lathering on my face. Cool stuff brother...
Thanks William. Lathering is one of the best parts of a wet shave. I like to really work it in, it feels great. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Real nice shave Kevy. Thank you.
Thanks Brian, much appreciated buddy. Kevy 👍
A bittersweet farewell episode to the Rex. I can't imagine how difficult it will be to pack it up, and send it away. I'm sure Martin will be happy to see it.This must have been a life changing fortnight. You were able to put the Ambassador through every test. I've never seen a shave were the aggression was turned up between each subsequent pass! This razor is the dog's danglers! The price is an arm, leg, and 3 fingers.

Nivea is hard to beat from a national product.
Yes, I like all Nivea products. Kevy 👍
I wish you, PaulH, Ken, and Cincy could come here to Florida for Wet Shave East June 30'th in Ft. Lauderdale.
That's would be amazing! Are you going Jill? Kevy 👍
Yes. Prior Big Shaves were held in California (before I started DE Wet Shaving) and was so happy to see it is coming here to Florida this year.
I've heard good things about this razor but for $250 (or was it quid?) That dial shouldn't budge one bit.
It's $250. I'm not sure how much it will be when it's sold here in the UK, but I'm in agreement with you, for that money I want the dial to be clickable or lockable in some way. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Wow the stick should last ages ! Great lather just from that !
Thinking of buying The Rex, did you ever purchase Kevy?
I haven't got one yet Jon but I'm waiting on the O4 ones coming out and I'll be getting one of those as that's the same as my birth year Gillette. I've got the cash waiting! Lol! 😀👍
@@kevyshaves4109 I purchased last year and sold it, regretted ever since! Can you explain how this is your birth year? Is it just because your birthday is in the 4th quarter?

Hi Kyriakos. Thanks. Nivea products are great. I don't own the Feather AS-D2 stainless razor so I can't video a shave using one. I've heard that they are great razors but they are quite mild and quite expensive. I think you can get a better razor for the price. Have a good weekend. Kevy 😀
I can send you a packet of ASTOR blades to check them out with the Rockwell 6s if you wish. What do you think?
Thanks Kyriakos. I think Astor Blades are the same as Bic blades here in the UK. Very kind of you to offer. Cheers. Kevy 😀
The White sensitive cream or the Nivea stick Kevy?
Sensitive cream all the way 👍
Smart idea with the blade marking off. Yes I am going to use my blades 3 times only. Don’t want to take chances. Cutting myself again.
The more you use different blades, the more you'll get to know when they get past their best. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Love you kevy
Great shave kevy apart from the giantic cut on your tuf Scottish skin so how was it when you used it on 6.5 and it's been quite a while since your last video.
Thanks joy. It felt smooth on 6.5 but I could feel the blade still. I liked it on every setting. Cheers. Kevy 👍
I just received my NIvea Men 2in1 Aftershave (the new name for the 2 Phase) from eBay. Smells refreshing and great face feel!
I really like it. Great face feel but I wish it had a stronger Nivea type scent. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Tuff shave their Kev! Liked the slowmotion replay😂👌
Great job as always. Hope you having a relaxing weekend my friend. All the best.
Cheers!
Cheers Johnny. The slo mo looked great! I hope you're on the mend. All the best. Kevy 😀👍
How sweet of that razor to give you a nice kiss goodbye lol. A back sack and crack would probably have scored you that razor. I doubt Martin would have wanted it back after that 😂 Great shave Kevy, have a great weekend mate 👍👍👍
Kiss goodbye :D haha
Tony Tony I thought it was marking its territory.
It was a nice kiss too! Ouch! I think the razor might've disappeared if it went near the crack! 😂😂 Cheers. Kevy 👌
Hi Kevy,What do you recommend between Nivea shaving gel and Nivea shaving cream using a brush, which of the two gives better results and is better for the skin? Thank you
Nivea cream and a brush will be much better for your skin. Kevy 👍
@@kevyshaves4109 In my country only the Nivea sensitive cream is available, is it a good quality cream?
Rex Ambassador or T-Rex Ambassador?! HA ha!
Feather are really killers Kev! You know that!
Ha ha! Maybe you could get yours in green! 😂 I'm starting to enjoy Feathers again..until this one bit me! Lol! Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Отлично Кеви!!!!
Just can't get in to Nivea products any more. Used the shaving cream and after shave balm ages ago when I started shaving over 30 years go.
Always liked the Nivea men products, when I couldn't find the shave cream I went to the Gel's (don't get the Foam, it's soupy after a while even with a good shake). Even those are really nice, reasonable prices as well. Of course that's here in Canada. Nice review glad you liked it.

Nice shave Kevy , i have just got a Braveheart razor head from Executive Shaving , and paired it with an Ikon handle , rearly impressed. Take care m8
Nice one Jeff. How would you compare it to a 34C or a DE89? I like the look of the Braveheart razor. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Good shave kev is the Rex the older version or the new version?
Zoom 111 It's the older version. I had it on loan from a friend. I hear the newer versions are even better now. Kevy 👍

Kevy Shaves O.K.. Cheers, thanks.
PS: I am behind the curve with most products. Now, I want to try that Nivea shave stick, as I only have a tube of their cream.
Hey Don. Personally, I think the cream is better than this stick. As this is aimed at body shaving, there might be something slightly different in the ingredients than there is in the cream. The stick is ok and the scent is the Nivea classic scent if you enjoy that, which I do. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍

I have the 3one6 with a Derby blade. Cut myself up. Will try again to shave 🪒 again after four day’s to see how my face feels. My fave is use to using Rockwell blades. See what happens aging later
Just curious, the progressive approach from 1 to 6+ was something I've not yet been brave enough to try. I've felt the opposing approach of starting more aggressive was a little safer. Do you generally progress to a more aggressive setting with adjustables? The other comment I have is a challenge. 😉 Try a Perma Sharp blade more than 3 times. I bet you will be very impressed.
I'm with you, Doug. I've always gone the other way -- more whiskers to cut, the wider the blade gap. I use the dial for the amount of days I haven't shaved -- #3 for 3 days without shaving. Then I always dial it down from there since there's less hair. It's worked very well for me.
Hi Doug. I do usually use an adjustable on the higher settings and then turn it down for subsequent passes. I just wanted to try the Rex the other way as it's such a smooth shaving razor. It still felt really smooth at setting 6 but maybe my lack of concentration at the high setting caused the cut! A Perma-Sharp more than 3 times...I'll give it a go. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Kevy Shaves Thanks for the reply Kevy. Always appreciate & admire your honest, honorable, upbeat & entertaining way.
Cheers Doug 👍
Will you get that razor for yourself and I got the muhle rocca.
I don't know if I will get that razor, joy. The adjuster dial is putting me off spending all that money. How do you like the Rocca? Kevy 😀
The rocca is just awsum bt I must say it is aggressive than the de89 or the merkur hd now I think this is going to be my go to razor.
Nice Kevy! It's sad to see the Rex Ambassador go.
I have to admit, I jumped, too, when you cut yourself. That looked like a bad one.
I've always used the dial the other direction -- the wider the gap, the more blade exposure, the longer I've gone without a shave. So, on my Parker Variant, I will set it to #4 if I haven't shaved in 4 days. Then I dial it down as there's less hair to shave. It's worked very well for me.
Have a great weekend!
Hi Jack. Yes, it's gone back to it's owner now. I'm still undecided if I want to get one sometime. It was a nasty cut. I usually do that with adjustables too but I wanted to try it the other way with the Rex, just to mix it up a little. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great looking shave Kevy! I don’t have the Nivea stick but I do have the moisturizing cream that comes in a tin and have used it after I was done with my shave right after using an aftershave splash also without an aftershave splash and I find that it does a great job moisturizing. The scent is pleasant as well. May your day be filled with delicious haggis, neeps and tatties. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hey Frank. Thanks for,the kind words. I forgot about that Nivea cream. I finished mine a while back. I need to get some more now, it's great stuff. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Your welcome Kevy. Who would have thought I would have inadvertently reminded you. Lol. Have a great day brother.
Excellent Video mate, you didnae half jump when that feather got you..It really is a smashing looking razor
Steven Kelly Aye. Gave me a right shiter!!😂
Wow at that rate one stick would last 💯 years. I wished we had the. 2 part aftershave in the US
You beat me to it, but I was going to do a Nivea shave too. I ended up doing one, and recording it. Also, I quite like your system for knowing how many times a blade was used.
Aww, I'm really sorry Don, I didn't know you were doing a Nivea shave too. I'll check your shave out. It's a good little tip for the blade useage. Cheers. Kevy 👍
What about the stick Kevy? Any good?
Its ok. Just ok. 👍
@@kevyshaves4109 Time to use it then somewhere else Kevy.
@@T-R.e.x Any suggestions? 😂😂
@@kevyshaves4109 Of course. I was talking about chest area. What were you thinking?!! 😂😅😱
@@T-R.e.x Dangly bits! 😂😂
Great shave enjoyed that Kevy.
Mark Walsh Thanks Mark. Much appreciated mate. Kevy 👍
The Nivea shave stick looks really good, even with only 3 strokes ;-) Mrs. M. won't let me buy any more shaving stuff but I'm sure I'll get one when she's not looking.
Ha ha! Sneaky! Lol!
Kevy Shaves Just a wee bit, lol
Fantastic video and shave Kevy. I see all goes well with the Rex. I think,for me, it’s a little bit expensive, but if people like it and can afford it then use it. Lol. Have a great day and cheers.
Cheers Kirk. If that dial was clickable or able to be locked in some way it would be my perfect razor. It's a lot of money for me to spend if it's not quite right for my shaving experience. Cheers. Kevy 👍
I couldn’t agree more.
Bloody butt smooth, nice shave Kevy.
Cheers Matthew. All the best. Kevy 👍
Love the videos Kevy. Very entertaining and informative. That cut appears to have been caused by a sideways action with the razor causing the blades edge to slice across your upper lip. Been there done that. Anyway keep up the good work.
Thanks Anthony. Yes, the cut was a messy error on my part...ouch! Cheers. Kevy 👍
Nice video Kevy. Ouch! I felt that cut through the screen, "feel-a-vision" the newest thing...lol. Seriously though, looked like a close shave and the Nivea products look good as well. Can't get certain Nivea items here in the states, would like to try the two phase but no joy. Heal quickly. Enjoy!
Thanks Terry. It was a stinger of a cut! I don't understand why the Nivea 2 Phase isn't available in the States. It's such a great product. I hope you guys get it ther soon. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Nice=) Nivea is awesome. Kevy, you also have to try the „Protect and Care“ shaving cream and aftershave balm.
Nivea is great stuff. Who makes the Protect and Care stuff? I'm not familiar with the name. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Kevy Shaves The people from Hamburg at Nivea=) „Protect and Care“ is a new line of them. You used the shower gel before, as said in the beginning of the video^^.
But I have to admid, that the old shaving cream was better. The newer formular of the shaving cream is now in their „Protect and Care“ line. You can combine this with the „Protect and Care“ aftershave balm nicely.
Ahh right, ok. Now I get it. I'll have to check to see if I can find some of the protect and care shave cream and balm. Thanks for the tip. Kevy 👍
Tis certainly true that every shave won't be perfect and there will be the occasional nick or cut but GOOD GRACIOUS that "SCREAM" was definitely unscripted! I ain't never heard a wet shaver wail in such pain....
And being the sensitive lad that I am had the best laugh I've had all month. Your sacrifice did not go unappreciated. Thank You very much...
Ha ha! You sadist!! Lol! I'm glad I could make you laugh. Have a good weekend. Kevy 😀
Nice razor Kevy! Man that's a glitch the razor Co.needs to fix. The dial to loose! Wish it was tight and clicked like a Gillette adjustable.
Thanks Michael. I wish it was clickable too. It's the only thing putting me off buying it. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Cheers kev
Wow ! that shave stick will last decades,l.o.l.
Yeah, it will outlive me that's for sure! Unless I start shaving my body with it! Then it'll only last a couple of weeks probably! 😂
lovely to catch one of your shaves again mate! i keep putting the REX into my shopping cart over here as Beardandblade have them on pre-order at the moment for $299AUS! It will in all likelihood end up in the den! lovely shave buddy!
Cheers bud. It's a good razor but it is pricey. Great weight and it shave beautifully, smooth as butter. Kevy 👍
Another Cut Above I got one from Beard and Blade. I’ts an excellent Razor and I use it on the setting between 1-3.
We want an absolute italian shave...from the razor to the aftershave!
I'll see what I can rustle up for,that. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Holy Scottish bloody Nivea Kev are you having a double belt of Johnnie Walker Blue Label while using Nivea
Ha ha! 😂🥃
Kevy what’s your wife say about you smelling way too much Scottish Nivea, does she used Nivea shaving stick to shave her legs and having a good belt of Scotch Whisky 🥃
She doesn't mind the Nivea scent. She doesn't use the stick on her legs. She doesn't like whisky, she's more of a vodka drinker! Lol! 😂 Cheers. Kevy 👍
Sounds like you’ve married a half Scottish and Russian Vodka drinker while she shaving her legs with a cartridge razor
😂😂
Great shave. I'd rather you kiss goodbye to the Rex Ambassador with a tear in your eye, knowing that you had great times with the Rex Ambassador. The Nivea Body Shaving Stick would be a good choice for a body shaver, but I'll be using it for my face to see how it will work
I'm sad it's going back but I have really enjoyed it. I'm still not convinced due to the issues I had with the adjuster moving. We shall see...
The Nivea stick is good. It creates a mega lather! Let me know how it works out for you if you try it. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Hah, "back, sack and crack". Laughed at that. Would you place the razor on 6.5 on the third pass with a new Feather?
😂 Yes, I used it like that in a previous shave that I didn't film. Very smooth razor. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Great video Kevy! It surely didn't look like your traditional Dr. Lather look. Nice razor but I'm not sold on the $ tag of it. Thought that nick was going to be another Braveheart scene. Great product review.
Cheers Tom. No, it wasn't the usual Father Christmas Kevy lather! 😂 I'm not sure about the raOr either for that money. It's the adjuster dial problem that's putting me off it. Shame as I live thenshave it gives me, so smooth. It was a nick of Braveheart proportions! Lol! All the best to you and your family. Kevy 😀
excellent shaving! Very beautiful razor. As it seems to me, this razor is a clone of the French adjustable razor Gibbs. Anyway, looks really good.
Thanks for video (and sorry for my terrible English)))
Thank you. It is very similar to the Gibbs razor. You're English is very good. Kevy 😀
Ouch! Been there done that!
Too many times for me! Lol 😂
The nick shave and nick free was very funny
Thanks joy 😀
Happy Friday evening Kevy! I will be sad to see the Rex Ambassador series coming to an end. Quite true...you can only use those Feather Hi-Steel blades three 3 pass shaves before they go to crap! I have an inkling that the body stick is aimed at Manscapers. lol..."Back, sack, and crack". Magic. I wish I had the funding for the Ambassador razor...it will be a collectible in 60 years. Pity I will be dead in 30 years. Damn. Ouch, Kevy...that was a good one. Where is your Proraso super-glue? That will seal that cut. Nivea aftershave lotion is thick enough to help seal that gash under your nose...hehe. All-round nice shave. Take care Kevy.
HeyTodd, sorry I'm a bit late in replying. It was great fun using the .rex. I love this razor but the adjuster dial issues I had I seen the only thing putting me off spending all my cash on it. Maybe they will make it clickable in the future and then it would be my perfect razor. I was liking the Feathers again. To be fair it was an error on my part...crap technique! Lol! The Proraso super glue wasn't enough! I held the styptic on there for around a minute before it stemmed the bleeding. Still, a good enjoyable shave. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Yes, the razor could be improved in some way. I suggested a tightening ring/lock nut. I think it depends on the razor for those Feather blades. Wrong razor and they feel like hacksaw blades. Good ol' styptic...I hope it is healing well.
It's doing ok Todd. Should be healed for Christmas! 😂
Back, sack and crack? LOL!
Go Habs 😂😂
Go Habs You'll want popcorn for that show.
Lol! And a blindfold! 😂
Go Canucks Go Vancouver
Hey Kevy I just bought myself that Rex Ambassador, the N Model and the dial on that model works really well no problems yes I know it’s not cheap but since I backed out of the Rockwell Model T do to to much BS and endless excuses or delays I told Rockwell to sod off. No regrets on the purchase as it will be my last razor that I’ll ever order so now it’s down to my Karve Razor and the Rex love both razors anyways Happy Holidays to you and yours and all other Wet Shavers out there.
The Nivea shave stick has gone back up to full price on the super drug website.
I got mine in Asda for 3 quid.
Your funny as Hell brother. Loved to have a beer or drink one day maybe if I'm ever your way .lol probably never happen , can't afford it flying.
I drop the hammer and order that Razor Rex. Ambassador $$$$. Looks great. I just hope my wife doesn't find out how much it cost but it's going to be my special gift to me . Ok
Where do you buy that cool brush at ? Website?
Cheers William. Oooh, you ordered a Rex? Good for you, you're secret is safe with us! The brush is from a guy who's local to me. He doesn't make brushes just now as he's really busy with his day job. Maybe in the future he'll get back to making brushes. Search for icshavingbrushes on Instagram. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Nice razor! Very kewl handle on that brush. That stick sure produced. Ooooooh, you got yourself good there on the nose, .ouchie!
Cheers Jill. I like this brush. The shave stick might be better for legs etc. I got myself good! Ouch! Lol! All the best. Kevy 👍
I like using them all...creams, soaps, sticks...can bowl lather or "leg lather" with the best of them now :)
That's great to hear Jill 😀
A wee nick but a great shave overall hope you have a great weekend. 💈👊👍💈😎
Cheers abe. Have a good week ahead mate. Kevy 👍
20:52 on 0.25x speed to see Kevy's pain face.lol
Ouch...again! Lol!
I could never get a decent shave with cartridge razors and just one pass.. At least two passes were needed...wet shaving was a better thing to do, together with a far better result.. Much happier now
I only ever used to do one pass with cartridge razors. This way of shaving gets much better results and is way more fun. Cheers. Kevy 👍
"Guess what after shave I'm using?" Stitches... ;-)
I think that might've been a good idea Mike 😂 Cheers. Kevy 👍
Sorry for your pain. Thanks for taking another one for the team... :)
Cheers Mike. I must qualify for a medal now?! 😂 All the best. Kevy 👍
LOL... a brave experiment with that stick, Kev. You're the Chuck Yeager of wet shaving! Pity Nivea don't make a proper face shaving stick - After using the cream, I'd be in it. LOL...Back Crack and Sack wax is terrifically popular in 'metrosexual' circles...I'll pass though LOL. Keep up the good work mate! Totally enjoy your viddies.
It was worth a go Mark! Yes, the cream ingredients in stick form would be great. I don't think there's enough wax for my crack! Lol! Have a good week. Kevy 👍
Hahahhaha nice slow mo bro
Thaaaaankkk yooooou! 😂Kevy 👍
The tube says "anti irritation" (maybe meaning from the razor) and Leeroy got irritation from the soap,l.o.l.
Ha ha! Maybe it meant you will get cuts from it and then you'll get irritated! 😂
great shave Kevy...sorry about the cut...looks nasty....do you accept American Express...just so i can prep for the back...sack...crack....lol!!!.....my friend got one of them sticks.....dried his face out....maybe because its for body,it has slightly different ingredient list..... take care mate.....Mark
Mark Chew Thanks Mark. Cuts happen, nothing that the styptic fixed. Ha Ha, American Express, that'll do nicely!😂 it didn't dry my skin out but I thought it could've been a bit more slick. Nice scent. Enjoy your weekend. Kevy 👍
Mark Chew LMFAO
Body builders shave their whole bodies. I shave my legs, thighs, arms, nether region bikini line etc lol I have no back hair or chest hair though hahahhahahahahhahah
😂😂
Weight lifters...swimmers....and divers...any sport that requires reducing air drag over body surface..and gay men shave their bodies..but they just do it for trolling shirtless at the beach...lol..step son was gay...love Nivia products...always part of my shave's ..wish I could get the new half and half shake and mix..not sold In states
How's Riley....you can send me the razor when your done..promise to send it back..in 2024..should be done with it by then...How's the acting and stage career doing...Missed you at the awards...well give Riley a cuddle and a treat...till next shave..cheers!💈🎸👍🏻
Oh well, just as well I'll never be shirtless at the beach...at least not without my bra on for my moobs! Lol 😂 Nivea stuff is good. I don't think they make a bad product. I wish you could get the 2 phase, it really is great stuff. Riley is doing great. The razor has gone back to its owner now. Cheers. Kevy 👍
