Nice shave video

I found this nice shave video by Gary Haywood on the Belgian Coticule forum:

That was a good find, I was on there this lunchtime and he hadn't put it up yet

Very different style - with a lot of small agressive movements and a lot of repeating strokes on the same area. That would kill my skin but obviously works very well for Gary.

Thanks for posting.

Lots of strokes, but notice how flat his angle is? I believe a flatter less aggressive angle is easier on the skin.


Nice vid Gary!

Very nice Gary.

Probably won't emulate the stroke technique, but I'm glad I watched it. The lip tip will come in handy if/when I ever start going ATG.

Good lord how fast was that? I'm taking like 25 minutes with a DE shave and he ripped through that with a SE in 10 minutes. Envy!!

The guy has obviously been at the straights for awhile to be able to do that, and I can only hope to become half as proficient in time. That razor was a beauty, anyone know what the make was?

Gary is a barber, the razor is a Dovo Bergisher Lowe 5/8

Great video, I look forward to the day that I can wield a straight razor with that confidence.
