May 26, 2017

So you want to grow a epic beard, to show how manly you can be, or just because you can't be bothered shaving. Either way, growing it is one thing. Looking after it is another story altogether.

Well today, we are going to showcase a few products to help get you started on your way to looking after and maintaining that beard of yours, whether it be long or short.

We have covered beard oils before in a previous blog, but lets have a quick run down of a couple of our favorites again:

Okay so we have covered some beard oils, how about shaving? What can you use to trim or should heaven forbid be the time for you to completely remove the majestic beard? We also have you covered here. Here are a couple of our favorite shaving razors.

Lets get you out started with the basics.

THE BLUE BEARDS REVENGE SHAVETTE

Cut-throat shave the Bluebeards way with this stylish replaceable-blade shavette, featuring the distinctive Bluebeards logo on the handle.

Now we can move on to something a bit more advanced. You've mastered how to use the Shavette and want to start using something a bit more classic.

DOVO SOLINGEN EBONY CUT THROAT RAZOR 6/8"

Purpose

Experience the luxury of a truly authentic wet shave with the Dovo Tortoise Shell Straight Razor. The razor is stylish, elegant and an absolute shaving classic.

Method

First you'll want to whip up a rich lather using shaving cream or soap, and apply it with a shaving brush. Then, holding the blade at a 30 degree angle from your face, make small passes across your jawline - applying more lather before another pass. Once the blade starts to tug or cause discomfort, you will need to hone it using a strop. Always do this before a shave, not after, when the blade is at it's most delicate.

Why it Works

The carbon steel blade of the Dovo Tortoise Shell Straight Razor provides you with an ultra-close, smooth shave, whilst the striking appearance of the classic tortoise shell style handle only adds to the feeling of authenticity.
