I get around the city a lot, and into many neighborhood with different ethnic backgrounds. Something that I have been find interesting is how some of the shaving products that people post about aren't in certain neighborhoods.
For instance, there are a couple areas in NYC (East 20's in Manhattan & Jackson Heights, Queens) that have many different Indian based stores...but none of them have any of the shaving creams (Shulton Old Spice & others) or blades (none of the Gillette) that are raved about here & manufacture in India. The Russian neighborhoods in Brooklyn have none of the Russian blades...even Chinatown stores do not carry the Chinese made D/E razors that are all over Ebay & Amazon.
However, they all seem to have Gillette Fusion razors & Wilkinson Sword Classic blades, if any D/E blades.
Other then the places listed on here on the site (Pasteur's, et al.)...has anyone run into anywhere within the city where they have picked up wet shaving supplies? Would like to be able to try some things without having to order from the Internet.
