This is a great shop. Very old timey and very classy. I went in on December 20 to find gifts for family. I have a brother who uses or used to use a straight razor. I've always been interested in doing it myself. So I walked in and was immediately helped by a younger guy named Chris. Very helpful, nice guy. He walked me through how it all works, the different tools, lotions ,etc. He even walked me over to their demonstration sink and showed me how to do some of the store (short of actually shaving). He did a great job introducing me. I was not planning on buying anything, but ended up buying a safety razor and a starter set with the pre shave oil, lather, and the after shave which comes with a brush. It's pretty pricey, but this isn't cheap throw away stuff from the store. This is high quality stuff. They also have the in shop barber if you want a cut.
