A lot of people who get into the wet shaving hobby end up acquiring a quite of your products different razors, different brushes, different sorts of hardware and creams and soaps. But, why do you if do not want to do that. What if you want to settle on one kit that does what it should do and does it well? Well, I am not going to give you on specific recommendations but what I will do is show you the most popular pieces of equipment that wet shavers use these days. And make you let you make your own choices.
This is the Merkur heavy duty. Sometimes you will see this called the heavy classic or simply the HD. If there was ever standardize safety razor for modern wet shaving this would probably be it. There well built sturdy mechanically simple and enormously popular. You can find them for 30 to 35 US dollars for more their wide variety of sources online and of. I have even seen them in cutlery shops. But what kind of blade should you feed your razor. I think you should seriously consider getting the safety blade sampler set from westcoastshaving.com. Sometimes you will see this called the letter K sampler pack. It consists of the few of the most popular brands of blades. Blades not created equally and look works for one person maybe awful for another so this is a great way of discovering which brands or blades work best for you then you can use your favorites search engine to find the best deal for that brand. Here is another very popular item the Crab Tree and Evelyn best badger brush at $35.00 this was a bonified bargain but as I tape this episode Crab Tree and Evelyn is in the process of changing their brush line up and has discontinued this particular model. So if you happen to have a Crab Tree and Evelyn store in area and you can still find one on the shelf it would probably be a good idea to grab it as it is no longer available at their website.
If you cannot find one here is a suggestion for a good middle of the road brush. Get one about four inches total high give or take that is about a hundred millimeters for you metric fans and about an inch or so at the base of the hair about 23 millimeters and consider a great of hair better than pure look for terms like super or best this will give you your best value for the dollar and performance. The manufactures that are often associated with good value for the money include Ball Fix, Shave Mack and Savel Row.
Finally here some thoughts on quality shave creams at least in the US the most widely available high end creams will probably be art of shaving, Crab Tree and Evelyn and truth in hill.
