Hi Guys.
If you find a shave artisan or a shave item that is uniquely Aussie or Kiwi post about it here and where to find it. Preferably the out of the way places or soaps, aftershaves, brush manufacturers or whatever that is not available online from overseas. Even is you find a great barber let us all know. I would qualify that as a traditional barber that provides outstanding old fashioned, old school service.
If you find an place that makes aftershaves locally even better. For those that don’t know you cant ship after shaves with alcohol in them by air so that rules out most of the great aftershaves form the USA.
You never know they might be just the thing they need to really get it off the ground.
I will kick it off with Windsor Grooming Shaving Accessories - Shave Stick for Men.
As far as I am aware it is not available outside Aussie. You can buy it from the Shaver Shop for $3 adds some market stalls like they have at Vic Market or South Melbourne market that stock hairdressing supplies for about $2.50. This stuff smells great and performs better than Arko IMHO YMMV. The two in the photo above I will PIF at some point soon. The scent reminds me of a gentleman's club I use to fix their copier in way back when, I am not sure exactly what it is but I do like it. It is cheap and mass produced and made in Australia. Well worth a shot.
What can you guys come up with or what have you already found ?
