Worst Shaving Podcast Ever

For this episode I wanted to talk about the recent announcement from Peter at A&E about his new collaboration with Alexandria Fragrances. We have seen collabs before with artisans and niche perfuming houses, but other than Zoologist perhaps not one of this magnitude. I discuss why this is great for us as shavers and for the fragrance community.

This episode is a little different. Though I do discuss my love for the “Macy” brush from Frank Shaving as a tribute to Friendship Shaving (an awesome YouTube channel and Facebook group!) I also discuss the current state of the community and a growing trend that has been a concern of mine and that I feel I should mention. On it the reasons I have all of these platforms is to discuss my opinions on wetshaving, and this is no different. I hope everyone has a great weekend and shave on!

Synthetic Menthol! It is known by many names, synthetic coolant, Koolada, Frozen Space. We are finally seeing it utilized by multiple artisans and it’s taking the community by storm. With artisans like the Holy Black, Noble Otter, Barrister and Mann, and more, it’s only going to become more prevalent from here on out. But where did it start, what makes it different from natural menthol or other known cooling ingredients like Tea Tree or Peppermint Hydrosol? Listen in to find out this and more on this episode of The Shaving Tulsan!

WHERE HAVE I BEEN? What’s new with the channel? And what have I been up to? I discuss my journey through Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements aftershaves samples, new acquisitions to the shave den, upcoming projects, etc.

It’s here! Edwin Jagger’s first stainless steel razor the 3ONE6. I have discussed this razor at length on my YouTube and showcased it extensively on my Instagram but wanted to be sure to discuss it here as well. The MSRP if the 3ONE6 will be $119 and should be released around Father’s Day. You will be able to purchase this razor from West Coast Shaving when it drops and the MSRP will cover a variety of handle types and finishes. If you aren’t already please feel free to follow me on my Instagram and YouTube, both can be found when searching “The Shaving Tulsa”.

The Holy Black...a Review! This is one that I’ve been wanting to do for awhile as they have been a center point of my shaving obsession since the beginning. But are they worth a look? What makes THB unique? Listen in to find out and to hear first-time announcements for THB. I also discuss community news from artisans like Stirling Soap Co., First Line Shave, and more!
