WAHL 5-Star “Super Close” Shaver Shaper – Too close for comfort?

WAHL 5-Star “Super Close” Shaver Shaper – Too close for comfort?

WAHL has been around for a very long time making superior grooming tools. And this one – WAHL 5-Star “Super Close” Shaver Shaper, is certainly no exception.

Gillette Fusion: Proglide Styler

Gillette Fusion: Proglide Styler

Gillette’s newest invention is the Proglide Styler. I’m sure you’ve seen the commercial for it… you know, the Masters of Style with Andre 3000,  Adrien Brody and Gael Garcia Bernal. Anyway, I was pretty impressed with the concept of this new 3-in-1 trimmer/razor and was very curious to see if this trimmer could really accomplish the styles that the “Masters” were wearing. After all, as a barber I couldn’t help [...]

On or off… Braun’s got you covered!

Braun, one of the industry leaders in the world of electric shaving, has been around for many years helping men look their best.  I personally have been a fan ever since I picked up my first pair of trimmers.

Electric Shavers

Electric Shavers

Not everyone wet shaves with a razor, for one reason or another.  Maybe, you get irritated skin from shaving with a razor?  Or perhaps, you feel that electric shaving is quicker and you can do it while in traffic (not a good idea by the way!).  Whatever the reason, I can understand.

Choose your hairbrush wisely!

Choose your hairbrush wisely!
