I was lucky to stumble across a Youtube video in 2007 about shaving the old fashion way with a badger hair brush and barber’s soap. Thanks to the Mantic59 Youtube channel and blog, many men around the world now enjoy a satisfying shave every morning.
I will use this post to introduce the basic equipment needed for a good shave. Here is the list:
- Badger hair shaving brush (synthetic or bristle brushes may also work)
- Shaving soap or cream (Nothing out of an air-compressed can)
- 1 double edged shaving handle (also known as, safety razor)
- 1 double edged razor blade
- 1 non-alcoholic after shave or skin moisterizer
- Hot water, cold water
- Towels (optional)
- 1 bowl, 1 mug and a sink

Shaving used to be a hated task for me. I couldn’t wait until the weekend to skip a couple of days. Now I look forward to this little routine. And why? I’ve replaced aerosol cans and disposable razors with a double edge razor, a good shaving soap and a pure badger shaving brush. Three simple elements that are not only able to give me a better shave, but that put together create a moment to unwind and do something for myself that I can enjoy and feel good about.

In the past I used shaving to remove my excessive hair but it was so painful that I had to quit. I gave shaving a try and it worked out but was really expensive. So I tried silk n and was extremely happy. I actually used the no no and was extremely suprised with the final outcome. It offered me permanent hair removal at an unbelievable fee. I certainly recommend it to someone instead of waxing.
