    Maybe you could put up another medicine cabinet.

    • @BrownManShaves
      @BrownManShaves 7 років тому +5

      Exactly! Check the stud location and just install another medicine cabinet. Very inexpensive and fairly easy to install.

    Hey Nick. Hands down the best Shave Vlog on You Tube. Concise, consistent and informative. Your format is perfect and you should definitely keep it. I'm a new wet shaver and after experimenting a bit I have patterned my routine after yours and the results are very good. Keep it up.

    To cut down on the echos try putting some more towels in there, you just need more stuff to absorb the sound waves.

    You need to try Viking Citron and Uncle Jon's (recommend Pipesmoke, bayrum, Silk Road).
    Also, your face after three days looks like mine after a week.

    I'm very concerned about the lack of new vids. Heard he'd been found wandering Newbury St with an overgrown beard, mumbling about finding best way to make the perfect lather. Just kidding absolutely love the videos with the honest input on your reviews. Hope all is well, and looking forward to your next vids!

    I can never shave my upper lip clean lol. there's hairs at the corners of the top lip and they never shave. I get very close but when I do, i knick my lip. it's so annoying. I use an Edwin jagger, astra blade, with original Barbasol shaving cream. maybe you can try this and see how u like it? maybe it's just a bad combo?

    Great shave Nick! I hope you and your wife are liking the new place. The Rockwell is a great razor. I've been using plate 6 for my last couple of shaves and an Astra SP. I'm gonna try Gillette Platinum today. Thanks for putting these videos out, I've learned so much from them. Have a great weekend!

  • @tonymarinelli7303
    @tonymarinelli7303 7 років тому

    Friggin good old Nick, I bet there are hundreds of women with self inflicted injuries where he lives, just so he can operate on them...LOL For me, the Rockwell, pound for pound, simply can't be beat. It provides the absolute smoothest shaves with zero weepers on setting 5 and 6. I fing love my Rockwell, the Model T should be here soon and I NEED a backup 6s set. My obsessive compulsive nature demands a backup set.

  • @RagtopRoads
    @RagtopRoads 6 років тому

    After watching this video I purchased a Rockwell 6S and I couldn't be happier. I was using a Vanderhagen before and it was tearing my face up. This razor is so smooth it makes you think all of the people still using disposable razors are idiots. Definitely worth the money. If you haven't tried wet shaving you should. The blades are way cheaper and give you a much closer shave.

  • @louisleoncini9240
    @louisleoncini9240 7 років тому

    Question, why bloom a soft soap, IMO makes no sense, hard soap ya. Been DE shaving 50+ yrs. Just my two cents.

  • @GPY1050
    @GPY1050 7 років тому

    Congrats on the move! I noticed you are liking the Personna Reds as of late. Although I have yet to try them, I have been really digging the Crystal blades, which are also Israeli made, and I believe by the same company. Sharp, smooth, priced well, and they seem to last pretty well. They are the first blade I felt confident enough with to go against the grain. Great match with my DE89, will likely also work well in your 34C or 6S. Cheers.

  • @TheBradleyd1146
    @TheBradleyd1146 7 років тому

    Looks good man. I found LED bulbs work really well for lighting, plus they are very energy efficient. It doesn't sound bad to me. My Omega boar brush is hands down the best I've ever used.

    Hey Nick, I just started wet shaving. I am getting ready to do my third shave. I am some Art of Shaving material. I was wondering what some good products that I could use? I have real sensitive skin kinda like yours.

  • @giuseppecurulli5907

  • @Alex00789
    @Alex00789 7 років тому

    Is the Parker 26C a good second safety razor? My first was an Edwin Jagger 89DE.

  • @tstaff5524
    @tstaff5524 7 років тому

    First, congrats on the move. I was wondering if you have ever reviewed or if not, if you would review Cremo concentrated shave cream. From what I have read, it's not suppossed to really lather but it's supposed to be the slickest stuff out there. I was thinking that if it is as slick as they say, I might try it as a pre-shave. would love for you to try the priduct and give your thoughts. (It is available at most Walgreens, Walmart, Target, etc.

  • @SuperJROK420
    @SuperJROK420 7 років тому

  • @MrJacquers
    @MrJacquers 7 років тому

    Get a side mirror and maybe put the patent above it or maybe mount a shelf too. There is a lot you can do with empty space. If you really want you could buy a vintage medicine cabinet and install it in there haha

    • @timkennedy1192
      @timkennedy1192 7 років тому +1

      I had that issue as well when I started and it helped me to just put a little extra cream all over my neck before lathering (I started out face lathering) and work to get the angle right with NO pressure, then do 2 passes, with the grain than kind of across the grain. I've never tried a pre-shave; I just use use cream from the tube on my neck or extra soap if I bowl lather. Whenever you don't HAVE to shave, skip a day or 2 and then shave. Good luck!

      grey My Favorite Razor is a 1954 Gillette Super Speed 40's Style Z1 as my daily driver. I also have a Merkur 34c which is a great razor, but for me personally...nothing beats vintage. You are right though, it's more about technique than the razor.

    Great video, Nick. If possible, I think it would be great for there to be another mirror to your right so you can film all angles. That was a really cool feature of your previous shave den.
