If you’ve never experienced a straight razor shave, then you are missing out on one of the greatest pleasures of being a man. There’s just something prestigious and dignified about the whole ritual. Rooted deep in history, the straight razor shave kept men of yore looking slick and notable. At Tabula Rasa Salon in Charleston, SC, you can bring back the close shave in a professional and relaxed environment.

A Cut Above

So what is a straight razor shave and what’s so great about it? A straight razor is a sharpened blade that usually folds into its handle. The razors are extremely sharp and the blades can work for up to 6 months when properly maintained. Today, the straight razor comes with different handle options but the fold-out style is still most common in barber shops across the country.

The cut from a straight razor is so precise that some consider it dangerous if done incorrectly. A straight razor takes time and skill to pull off so it’s best to seek a professional barber to make the cut. When executed properly, the cut offers a shave like no other. At Tabula Rasa Salon, you can get full razor shave or a post-haircut neck shave, both of which will last longer than a disposable razor cut at home. With a pristine cut, you won’t need to shave every day. A closer cut also means you’ll spend less time and money trying to achieve the look yourself. And you’ll cut back on all the clutter and mess that comes with shaving at your own sink.

Getting Closer

Harnessing the power of the straight razor is a special process. Our barbers start with a natural oil cream before your shave and a hot towel afterward to make sure your skin stays free of irritation. Be prepared to lay back and enjoy the feeling of a smooth cut. You might also enjoy the conversation that can ensue when you’re getting a precision cut. There’s just something wonderful about enjoying a straight razor shave from a trusted barber.
