Why a Straight Razor Shave Is Different
Cartridge razors cut the hair above the skin. A straight razor cuts at the skin level — the result is a shave that's noticeably smoother, lasts longer, and causes less irritation when done correctly.
The difference isn't subtle. Men who try a professional straight razor shave for the first time are usually surprised by how smooth their skin feels — and how long it stays that way.
Beyond the result, there's the experience itself. Sitting in the chair, feeling the warmth of the lather, and trusting a skilled barber with a blade — it's one of those things you have to try to understand.
