THE CUT THROAT SHAVE THAT EVERY MAN MUST TRY
November 25, 2022
It seems that blokes have somehow and at some point in time lost their way when it comes to the ritual of shaving. What was once a trip to the barbershop for a shave, chin wag and some good old relaxation has become a daily chore of despise. In today’s article we ask the question of where we went wrong and why the barber’s cut throat shave is one that every man must try?
Where did we loose our way when it comes to enjoying male grooming?
The first thing to consider is that a trip to the barbershop for a shave once provided men with so much more than just a clean face. Traditionally the barbershop was one of the busiest establishments in town and it was the meeting place where everyone enjoyed a good chin wag and caught up on current affairs.
When the safety razor hit the scene, shaving became a task to be completed as quickly as possible. Men started to shave at home with instant shaving products and have done so ever since. The traditional enjoyment of a trip to the barbershop was lost and so was the social release that it provided.
Men had ‘lost their way’ but are slowly moving full circle as they rediscover the barber’s cut throat shave and it’s hidden benefits.
Why the barber’s cut throat shave is one that very man must try?
In today’s societies we are faced with long work days and little respite, a ten hour day along with a commute is commonplace. Men seek refuge from this crazy modern lifestyle and they find it in the comfort of the barber’s chair and an age old traditional craft. It’s a comfort found in a process done properly not quickly, it’s a time to take a break, kick back, relax and enjoy.
Looking for some escapism of your own? Join the growing number of men who have come to appreciate the difference and who trust in our team of master barbers for a little personal down time and a grooming experience like none other. Try for yourself seven days a week at Barber Industries QVB Sydney.
