“ShaveWorld.com” delivers razor blades to your home on a schedule by mail, ensuring you always have a fresh blade. (You can also just order one-offs, but what’s the point?) [Shaveworld] (Thanks, John!)


John Allan Shaving Roll Up

Although I’ve gone all electric with my shaving gear at the moment, both because I have a beard that only needs modest trimming and because it makes travel easier, this “Roll Up” from John Allan is god damn appealing. It’s basically a strip of leather with interlocking pockets inside that hold various cremes and tinctures, […]

The Democrat’s campaign committee picked up the tab for two haircuts at $400 each by celebrity stylist Joseph Torrenueva of Beverly Hills, Calif., according to a financial report filed with the Federal Election Commission.

Who knew that ON-J was such a teen sensation? She made her break trying to convince the world that Aussies don’t roast crocodiles over a pit for Christmas. (You’re thinking Easter.)

I’ve never seen the commercials for the “Infinity Razor,” which purports to have a blade make of science stuff so everlasting that it won’t need to be replaced for a decade. A Times reporter bought one and tried it out; it shaves like shit, he (more or less) says. Noted!
I’ve always had decent luck with […]

Today’s missive from Men.Style.com details “Every Man Jack,” a new grooming line for men available at Target that aims to be the “H&M of grooming products.” Every unpretentiously-named product in the line can be had for five bucks or less, from the “Face Lotion” to the “Body Wash.” Plus Every Man Jack forgoes “potent chemicals” […]

The finer man understands that there is nothing whatsoever to be ashamed by a man pampering himself with slightly higher standards of grooming and treatments, as well as using the right grooming products in his gentleman’s toilette. Such is the philosophy behind John Allan’s salons for men.

Perhaps you’ll remember our profile of Joe Heaps Nelson, a favorite NYC artist. He’s just interviewed another local favorite, Nelson Loskamp, who is increasingly well-known around these parts for his performance art/grooming service, the Electric Chaircut. [whitehotmagazine.com]
