    Default My son's 1st barber shop shave

    I took him for his 1st shave last week and it was fun.

    We were a bit disappointed in the outcome as we both can get a better shave at home. Just to clarify, it was a good shave and ritual, just not great. Some spots BBS others not.

    Well as long as he didn't get nicks or razor burn, I say he got a successful shave!

    According to the sign in the third photo, haircuts and shaves are 50 cents. That's a pretty good deal, regardless of the shave quality!

    since I've started using a DE, a barber shop shave doesnt come close to what I get at home. I used to think it was much better when I was using carts
