The Perfect Shave
Ever since prehistoric man first scraped a seashell across his cheek so prehistoric woman would let him dance cheek-to-cheek, shaving has been a part of the male experience. But even with today’s high-tech razors, lots of men still get nicks, cuts, and razor burn.
Marshall Hall of Reds has trained with leading Italian barber, Joseph Lanzante and now offers the latest trend in male grooming that promises a better shave by going back to the old school.
We asked Marshall what makes the perfect shave?
“The perfect shave is what all men strive for every morning when they bring their razor up their chin – an effortless shave that’s baby smooth, and without any of the usual skin irritation, redness, and that burning sensation most guys seem to feel is par for the course when it comes to shaving.
Why do so many guys find this so hard to achieve? Because proper shaving has become a lost art. Shaving is one of those glorious male traditions that used to be passed down from father to son, but somewhere along the line, when shaving became more about cheap, disposable razors than a nice, precision-made metal tool in your hand, it became a brainless routine to rush through in the morning without even thinking about it. A dull disposable razor dragged across a layer of foam or gel on your cheeks is a step backward from the past, not an improvement. Now that men of all ages are paying more attention to their appearance, it’s no wonder that the hottest trend right now in male grooming is a return to the traditional wet shave.”
“At Reds we have a fabulous new Mens salon, on the first floor, where men can relax in a chilled out environment, and maybe watch a bit of Sky Sports. Its a first for Sunderland and the way mens hairdressing should be.” said Marshall
