I've been using safety razor my whole life. Now like to get into straight razors. I'd buy a straight razor not to long ago. After watching your video I feel more confident. I was so afraid to chop off my neck. Thank you so much.
Thank you for these videos. I shave my husband who has parkinsons. He has the roughest, driest, skin and thickest facial hair. I'm trying a straight raiser for the first time this evening.
Been looking at various videos but this is by far the best. I've been trying to use both hands (lefty, but use right a lot in general) but after seeing your technique, will stick to one handed method. So informative but not overloaded with info, well done and great work👍🏻
Brother, this is gold. This is timeless. You explained every grip so well. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your immense skills with us.
I feel like I'm going to school..as I am only a few shaves in with this kind of razor.. I've used the IBC razor,a ring type shavette,and I'm using one like he's using tonight for the first time..
@@Pranav_Mathur thank you kindly.. I did ok but the initial start I had to have skipped over my skin and caused very visible but superficial marks from the blade skipping on my ride cheek by the sideburn area... other than that I did ok . I'm not doing a full shave with this type of razor, but finish it with a safety razor..
@@rauldelarosa2768 It's good to keep a DE razor handy. Gives confidence. And you'll get much better with more shaves. The razor might be skipping on the skin due to longer strokes. I had to remind myself to keep the strokes extremely short and light. Kind of feels strange esp. after years of operating the DE razor on autopilot.
decided to start using a straight razor. some ready later and i figured i was good. lots of nicks, but nothing noticible wants they stopped bleeding. but this video was very helpful, gonna try again here soon, see if these tips and tricks helps. post a respince here soon afterwards edit/update worker really well. after doing it, i knicked myself two times after dowing the whole face, lip and right next to the chin, and i already know how they happened. bad angle. lip was cuz my nose, and next to the chin was just a weird motion and because i hit my thumb cuz it was just a little to close. but unoticible, and the cleanest shave i’ve ever had. definitely gonna keep with it and get better with it. very good video to know how to shave your face
This is what I needed my father to teach me, great video love you man. ( so tired of cutting my face, but your proper technique and common sense allowed for a proper cut.)
EZBLADESHAVINGPRODUCTS hi sir, since u replied. Im a first timer and i want to shave my whole face to chin beard with straight razor and your gel. Any advice or tips.
Learning a lot .... I've been DE shaving for a couple years but recently decided to use a straight razor for more meticulous shape up work and such! I was using a Mach 3 for shaping up and while it came out good I felt it could be better ( more professional like ) so I started looking in to Straight razors & Straight razor shavettes! Came across your channel and picked up a few jewels that you dropped... greatly appreciate it good Sir! Definitely going to order that clear shave gel and the wooden handle razor ASAP! Need those in my life!
Helps a lot that you're a lefty like me lol. All of it saved me plenty of time. Im wanting to learn go strate razor for myself to save time and money! Thanks for the informative video !
Very informative and succinct coverage of the essential aspects in straight razor shaving. I also like the minimal sale of the product within the presentation. The product is outstanding as the presentation compelled me to further research the product and purchase
Funny you mention that, cos I was thinking the same thing. I’m learned ambidextrous (almost cut off my left index finger as a kid-surgery, yadda yadda yadda), and I’ve always used both hands to shave. Not exactly, but kinda doing once with the left, and then another with the right. But with a lot of things, seeing someone do things lefty makes me happy, bc I’m not having to reinvent and invert a process.
You do an amazing job in your videos . This is the third video of yours I have watched. The first was to show me how to edge a beard. Once the razor came I sought you out to teach me to load it and then I found out I wasn’t able to hold it and see what I was doing. So finally I watched this video and paused it shaved, paused it shaved and am looking pretty good. Thanks a lot for the great lessons.
Amazing video, thanks a lot. You showed me it is possible to use just one hand, amazing technique!! I struggled a lot shaving with my left hand, thanks for your video, lots to learn here for me.
I did go to cosmetology school in high school. I have never cut with a straight razor. I want to be able to do my boyfriend and he actually said ok. I think I'm going to keep watching this over and over. I'm going to get your products to give the royal treatment.
is it normal to get the occasional cut? thx for this video brother, ive always wondered how to use the razor in the moustache & chin area not to mention under bottom lip.
This helps me learn how to do this. I love hair cuts... well.. any hair tutorials. BTW, was looking at your surroundings. Egads!!! Not showing your hostages how to shave, right?!!!
I got surprisingly little irritation. Just one tiny bleeder, that is all. My first straight razor shave ever. My mistake was I always tried to hold it the way I was suppose to. That is not always possible.
Really surprised how little shaving cream you use. I understand it can be done with the pores are properly opened and the follicles are stimulated (softening the beard) but damn. I like to have a healthy lather if cream to really stand ‘em up and it makes for a smoother glide. I’ve never liked it when I go to a barber and he puts some butter type product with no cream and then it’s “scrunch…scrunch…scrunch”. This is just me though.

guys online say you need a brush and lather to lift the hair. ez blade content doesn't show this step. I don't know who to believe! Anyone have any insights here?
All depends what type of shaving cream you use. If you are using a shave soap you will need a brush lift the hair. We carry shave soap and badger brushes. This particular cream we are using in the video is a a brushless shave cream you can do it by hand. Thanks for watching!
@@ezbladeshavingproducts Thanks for clearing that up! What do you suggest for people with extremely thick and course black hair? Having trouble getting a good shave on my neck.
OK I don't see you shaving UP on your face, with a regular razor I would be able to feel my beard running my hand up when I was done not feeling like a SMOOTH SHAVE! Is it different with the Straight Razor or can I SHAVE up if I want to🤔
Thanks for watching! Yes you can definitely shave up with a straight razor. Check out our head shave video on the channel. It will show you how to shave against the grain for a smoother shave!
Smart business man he he demonstrates how to use his own products wow amazing....usually a lot of these companies send out to other people to demonstrate their product but this guy doesn't I like ... that......
I have my own hair salon; it sits right above a meat pie restaurant. The problem is, I keep "nicking" my client's throats and then they never come back. I'm pretty proficient with my straight razors but it just seems like the richer or fatter my clients the more "nicks" they experience. Then they just disappear.
Make sure you stretching the skin more. There is a full video here on the channel that breakdown how to use the straight razor. Watch it asap. Thanks again.
See we learn from Afrikkan Wisdom, on weekday or weekend we gather at community Barbershop and get one of the packages done. Then we laugh and talk there.
@@ezbladeshavingproducts oh for sure I've always done that. I thought it was odd that a lot of these videos I see show everyone only going in a downward motion. I go every direction to cover all growth patterns
MOHAMMED GEEDI: If I shave my own face the wrong way, I will get the biggest and deepest cut on my face that will devastate and tramuatize my mother and brother.
That’s not a straight razor !!! Coming from a proper straight razor user and the occasional feather artist club razor ( shavette) what he is using is a shavette ….they behave completely different to a real straight razor …
@@oyrysyzzayv280 not true, as long as they sterilize the razor, and or each customer can buy their own razor for every time they show up !! Plus, what's that matter, it's still NOT a straight razor, it's a shavette !!

What is the name of that spray u use for your blade before shaving and why ?
I just use water and soap for shaving my beard. Although I don't get cuts, I wonder how great it would be to experience using those creams and oils.
They would be a lot better for your skin. In the long run.
Great video on how use the straight blade in one’s face, thanks for the tips and techniques. I will soon give it a try.
Great tips, wish I'd have stumbled across this a couple weeks ago when I used mine for the first time!
Thanks for watching
Appreciate the help! Want to do this for my husband.
Thanks for watching
Great video. Good explanations on how to stretch the skin.
best video for a straight razor, thank you bro
If i start out trimming my beard with a T liner , do i need to use shave gel and oil first ?
You can use the outliner first then shave gel or oil for straight razor line. The website is fine check it out!
Thanks for the video my straight razor is coming today and I’m gonna follow along with you on it
Thanks for watching

What is the best smelling aftershave, I hear Pinaud Clubman is good?
Not 100 percent sure. I know we have more a natural smelling one. Thanks for watching man.
he made it look soo easy am still struggling to hold the razor correctly
You got it. Keep practicing
Do you have to rinse blade with every hair? Because that’s what I was doing
What do u do to prevent razor burns and bumps ?
Our after shave tonic
I think you look better with a goat tee honestly you look more confident and your bone structure and that style matches well in my opinion
Thanks! Maybe I will give it a try. Thanks for watching
I'm so thankful for this video🙏❤
No problem
Thanks is there different techniques for when you are shaving a client with a straight razor or just use the same

Hi - Jay (Victory), certainly your product would improve our record on that.
How often do you need a new blade on one of these? I get so sick of replacing safety blades.
