Classic Shaving - Past and Present
Classic shaving, also known as traditional or wet shaving, involves using water, a sharp blade, and lubricants to remove hair or whiskers from the surface of the skin. While modern shaving products include a wide variety of items to assist with this task, the earliest shaving implements included sharp knives, sharp stones, or any other edge that could complete the job.
Traditional Shaving Implements
The first blade officially recognized as a shaving implement was the straight razor. Also known as the "cut throat," this long, straight blade was difficult to keep sharp and equally difficult to use by the novice. Next, the safety razor was invented. This was considered a major improvement over the straight razor and was constructed of a thin, double-sided blade inserted into a holder that looked much like the typical modern razor.
In 1921, vintage shaving gave way to modern shaving. Colonel Schick introduced the injector razor that was modeled after the repeating rifle. Instead of handling the extremely sharp razor blades, this model used a device that allowed the gentleman to change the blades without ever touching the dangerous metal items.
During the 1960s, the popular injector razors began to lose market share to an even newer product. The cartridge razor allows the user to remove the entire top, or cartridge, of the razor and install a new one. Today, this configuration can be purchased with variations of one blade to five and often include lubrication strips to make shaving even easier. The purely disposable razor was also invented during this time. Simply use it one or two times before throwing it away.
Soaps, Creams, and Brushes
The classic shaving enthusiast has several options when it comes to lathering up for a smooth shave. The vintage shaving method involves using a bowl with a small piece of soap inside. A small amount of hot water is added, and a rich lather is created using a shaving brush. Although any type can be used, most pharmacies carry soaps designed especially for shaving.
Most modern wet shaving fans have eliminated the soap, bowl, and brush method in favor of the more convenient canned shaving cream option. This product comes in a wide variety of creams, lotions, and gels with a vast array of scents and formulations for any skin type. Some shavers prefer to simply use their hands to create a rich lather before applying it to their face, while others continue to use the brush method.
Brush advocates swear by this technique due to the exfoliating effect and the luxurious feel of the brushes on the surface of the face. Many shavers who continue to use a hard cake of soap prefer boar-bristle brushes, while the softer badger brushes are recognized as a premium product. When purchasing a badger brush, note that "pure badger" is the lowest quality product followed by "finest badger" and "silvertip badger."
Classic shaving can include a wide variety of razors, lubricants, and brushes depending on the individual shaver's preferences. Regardless of the products used, this method is preferred by many as the best way to achieve a perfectly smooth result.

Benefits of Using a Shaving Brush
Every morning millions of men around the world face the mirror to remove their facial hair. Anything that makes this easier is worth writing about. Shaving has developed into what it is over thousands of years, but the best part is, that in contemporary times, there is much less blood spilled in the process. This is due to the many advancements in the equipment used for this task. Razors have become much less hostile, with the invention of triple and quad bladed razors as well as electric razors. For those who like to shave wet, the lathering soaps work well and are easy to use. So why not simply use the electric razor?
The main reason being that a closer shave is usually achieved using a razor. No doubt the electric razors will continually improve.
When using a razor, it is best to lather the area being shaved with the appropriate soap. This is applied with a shaving brush, using s circular motion allowing a close, comfortable and enjoyable shave. The higher the quality of the shaving brush, the higher the lather and water load that it can carry, making the shave quicker. The user does not have to continually get more soap from the shaving mug. The more water the shaving brush holds the richer and moister the lather will be. The thicker the lather, the easier the shave, as there is less drag on the razor and the razor has no chance of missing the bristles. The greatest benefit from shaving brushes is the tendency to soften and lift the bristles, which cannot be achieved by applying the lather by hand. In fact, when applying the lather with the hand, the bristles are flattened, making it more difficult to shave quickly.
A man's face is a personal space and most men will develop a technique that suits them best. If one chooses to use the wet method for shaving, purchasing a high quality shaving brush will make the process easier. Traditional shaving brushes were invented in France and only badger hair was used in them. This type of brush is still available, however the price is very high for the top of the range, silvertip badger hair shaving brush. For most applications modern synthetic blended shaving brushes will do the trick. There is also a need to purchase a soap mug, in order to produce the lather, although many use shaving lotions and gels that come in a pressure pack.
Shaving brushes can be purchased from men's shops, chemists, pharmacies and reputable online sellers.
