The Art of the Straight Razor Shave in Sarasota

There’s probably a good chance that you have to shave as a part of your daily routine. And whether you use a razor or an electric, it might be something that you just do and don’t give a considerable amount of thought to. However, there’s an art form that exists within the activity of shaving that sadly isn’t practiced all that much anymore–the art of the straight razor shave. Well, it’s available at The Barber Chair in Sarasota, and the advantages are plentiful.

Preparation & Technique 

While you might have heard of the straight-razor shave, the process might be foreign to you. The traditional straight razor shave includes a hot towel and cream. The heat stimulates the hair follicles and makes them easier to remove. The cream is something you’re already familiar with if you use a handheld razor at home. The straight razor is sharp, and it’s recommended that you trust the skilled hand of a barber rather than attempt it yourself. 

Close & Comfortable 

The feeling of a close shave is exceptional, and if you have a significant other, they probably enjoy it just as much as you do, if not more so. A straight razor shave produces an after-effect that’s as close as you can get. You won’t believe the feeling when it’s complete.

Fewer Knicks, Fewer Cuts, More Style 

While many of us are cautious when we shave, there’s no denying that accidents occur from time to time. And let’s face it, knicks and cuts from a shaving accident are painful, not to mention slightly undignified. With a straight razor shave from a skilled barber, these worries will be a thing of the past, and you’ll wonder how you ever did without one. 

Environmentally Friendly 

In an age where everyone is doing their part to safeguard the planet we all call home, having a straight-razor shave is a wonderful way to do your part. How? Disposable razors are one of the many items that take up space in landfills, and stubble can sometimes reach the environment through the plumbing in your home. Not only will a straight razor shave make you look good, but you’ll be doing well as well.
