    Default Unexpected Find of Classic After Shaves and Splashes in San Diego

    Actually it's in National City

    We were running around for work today and one of the guys we were with asked if we could stop at United Barber Supply http://www.unitedbarberbeautysupply.com/ in National City to pick up a #3 1/2 blade for his clippers.

    As we were going in, he said I should enjoy myself as they sold some "Old School" shaving stuff . . . Here's what I found. Mostly aftershaves & splashes and just a couple of creams & soaps (Lucky Tiger cream and Marvy pucks) Omega and Marvy brushes, no blades, the only razors were a couple of shavettes and a couple of paki & Chinese straights and Lucky Tiger and Clubman Mustache Wax

    Thanks for posting, I like small shops like this. Would be great to find something like this locally.

    Looks like Atlanta Barber Supply.lol.Lots of stuff and many things not found on their website.I notice some of the bottles were half full,did they sell samples?If so that would be a good way to try things,Or they did they refill bottles for customers.
