Would you like to experience a Hot Lather Shave?

If you love to experience a Hot Lather Shave, you are up for a treat.  Today I will be telling you about The Bed Shave?

What is a Bed Shave?

A Bed Shave is what I like to refer to a Straight Razor Shave at the Barber pole Barber Shop.  If you like to know what a Bed shave entails, watch the opening scene of The Untouchables

Why Bed Shave?

When I was in High School, I wanted to experience a Bed Shave.  What came through my head at the moment, I wanted to be strapped to the barber chair while the barber shaves my face with the straight razor.  Nowadays, I would like to experience the barber holding my head between each stroke of the razor.

Where did I witness the Straight Razor for the First Time?


In the new year of 1995, my grandfather took me to the Rabbit Barber Shop in Keswick, Ontario for our family hair cuts.  While I was waiting for my turn to hop into the chair, I saw the barber put on some gel on the back of the person in the chair.  A moment after, the barber wielded the straight razor and than he shave the back of the person's neck.  I wanted to experience the head holds, of the Straight razor.  

Since 2018, a Boring old Medical clinic and pharmacy now occupies the former Rabbit Barber Shop.  Now you can get a stethoscope on your chest.

Where can you go to Experience a Bed Shave for yourself?
