Well if one guy with a strait cut you why would you want to do it again.? Just curious.
-
Straight razors are bad news in my experiences.

I'd love to have a straight razor head shave once in a while but I don't know of anyone around here I'd trust! ;)

I don't think I'd ever go for a straight razor shave because of this point. I wouldn't trust anyone enough. Plus I've probably seen too many horror movies...

It's been a few years now but I used to have this one barber do the whole hot towel straight razor thing for a regular (face) shave and it was heaven! :@` I sure wish he was still around.
He was old back when I was young and man could that man handle a blade! ;D

I had one of those in Barcelona years and years ago--my luggage was misplaced! It was so clean and smooth I didn't have to shave for three days. Would that I could try that guy on the scalp--probably great. Maybe someday.

I've gotten some from some greek barbers down in Cali...
awesome job and I loved when the one younger barber asked the older guy in Greek if I wanted it really SHAVED and not buzzed ( I had about a 3 week buzzcut)...once he was sure that I wanted it shaved smooth bald..
he went to town and did the hot towel action ect...
he dug doing it and got it perfect bowlingball smooth! O0

Two words:
SWEENY TODD!
-
I want one so bad but can't find anyone around here to do it because they have all stopped because of "health" issues. :'(
I'll keep looking though.

Let's find a barber close to a hospital or a blood bank. Maybe both.

I've had a straight razor face shave and it is awesome really crisp and clean. I have seen straight razor head shaves but they always end up with 2 or 3 nicks and cuts.
-
There are many barber shops in my area that do razor shaves. I have never had a problem getting cut. My advice is to find someone older and experienced in a busy shop.
-
I get one every Friday, very rarely does the barber nic me. It is my starting the weekend treat.
-
Every week. Doesn't that get a little expenive.?

Sorry for digging up an old topic guys, but I was going to post one just like this, so thought I may aswell just post in this one.
I use a straight razor myself and it's the best shave I've ever had. I only have to shave once every 2-3 days because it shaves so close, and once you learn how to handle it properly you tend to not have trouble with cuts.
Just the best, most refreshing feeling shave ever (so far... Not tried the head yet!).
