Title: What's the best shaving cream, oil, or gel that you've used?
Post by: Tyler on January 07, 2015, 12:00:27 PM: Many of us have tried a variety of shaving creams, oils and gels and have a favorite or a couple of favorites.

If money wasn't a factor, what shaving cream, gel or oil would you use?

Post by: Sir Harry on January 07, 2015, 02:32:08 PM: My personal favorite would have to be the Razor Rock shaving soaps....I love the smell and the lather lasts very long for such a small amount.....Head Slick would probably be second on my list, though.

Stirling shaving soaps. The barbershop is the best but I like most of them.
Razorock and strop shoppe are both very close seconds.

I swear by his stuff, lathers up great and plenty of scents to choose from. He does take online orders but I don't want to get in trouble with admin for posting the name of his company or a link to his website, do you think it would be ok? Don't want to be labeled as a spammer.

Post by: fjc on August 08, 2015, 04:31:46 AM: Headslick works well on my head, but recently I bought a cheap badger brush and a tub of Taylor's of Old Bond Street Sandalwood. THAT was a luxurious shave! Alas, my wife absolutely hates the scent (she loves sandalwood, but feels this smells too much like Noxema). Just got a tub of Taylor's "Jermyn Steet Sensitive skin" which is a much milder scent.

Post by: Tom Ford on August 12, 2015, 11:20:22 PM: I'm new to headshaving, but the best combo I've used to date has been Somersets pre-shave oil, and Santa Maria Novella shave soap with Lanolin which provides a slick glide and protection.
