Changeable Straight Razor Holders

[brandond268]

Do they sell the changeable blade (not the holder) in walmart? What lane, near what?

[HONORGUARD308]

I have a Dovo Shavette exactly the same as that just with a red holder, i love love love it, i still would like one with a bit more weight but that will come in the form of an old school straight razor design

[pimpinlucky1]

do these fit derby blades

[cfhasib]

can u snap someone's finger if hit hard with it?

[FroopieLoopies]

I use a RG Feather Straight Razor--its the best Ive used so far.

[buzzclark]

Hi Al. Look like the Dovo Shavette is for me. I will go to Atlanta.com  - the personna with the Dovo. It's a winner. Thanks Al. Sincerely, JAMES.

going to post this on barbershopconnect com

[TheAlphaWires]

I'm soo getting this! DOVO insanely great quality razors. I went to the site you provided (atlantabarber) and ordered this exact one. But with shipping it's over $50. Before I clicked "confirm payment", I noticed they allow promo codes for discounts. I was wondering if anyone has some promo code that can cut the hefty price a bit?

--Thanks.

Great video! I laughed at your pronouncment, the Dovo "Chevette" lol....... :-)

[harrowrudeboy]

@jsj297 what is the correct pronunciation?

[jsj297]

@harrowrudeboy it's "shave- ette"....and i was just picking around, it just make me smile when he said chevette, cause I used to hav a chevette too! lol

[harrowrudeboy]

@jsj297 whenever i read it i would always say chevette, a colleague saw it first time today and said shave-ette!

[americanshave]

Hey, nice work, you should stop by our online store to get the razor we use at American Shave.. Search American Shave, its a firm grip and really nice quality. Good Luck

[shavefan12]

Have you ever tried the Feather straight razors?

[FormulaDGoSpeedGo]

I mean is there a razor thats a high brand. Everyone I've seen never has a brand name or aything. 

[FormulaDGoSpeedGo]

Is there a certain brand of razor? Brand wise. Great vid.

[rtrice1870]

looked like you were going to cut yourself

[Ingodspantswetrust]

Thanks for hookin me up with that website man. ive been wanting to find a great razor...all they have around here are cheap think plastic handles. again thanks for the help and keep doin what you do.

[thuglivin96]

Using the Dovo, which blade would you use?

[BoDad415]

Thanks for all the info. I'm going for my barber licence and want to be correct. Been in the construction Industry 15 years and always loved cutting hair! Getting all my tools together and ready for barber college!

One Love

[alsmillions]

@BoDad415 I wish you all the best and much success!

[5tonyvvvv]

@alsmillions best part is they never clog!

[5tonyvvvv]

@alsmillions nice blades i love em..they never clog

[mrmag1cc]

Al, Do you have any experience with doing that? Does it make you look like you have a big forehead?

[mrmag1cc]

Hey al,

My hairline kind of goes up on my forehead. Is there any way i can get a straight line without looking like a i have a huge forehead?

[alsmillions]

@mrmag1cc If you have to go back to make the line straight you will expose more forehead.

[razorboymike3]

Is it possible i can shape my self up? I rather that then go to the barber and pay for them to mess my hair line up when im growing my hair out..

[alsmillions]

@razorboymike3 If you have to ask me that, you don't need to be doing it.

[lucasmorter]

@alsmillions aint that the truth. ive been shaving my own head for years and i gotta say the first 6 months at least it was never pretty. nicks and cuts all over my head ha ha ha

[antoniovtorres]

This is exactly the info I was looking for. I've been using the first two that you showed. That' first one didn't just nick me, it pretty much sliced the top layer of my skin off. It's healed up to the point that it looks as though it never happened. I've been using the 2nd type of razor for years. I decided to just try that first one. Big mistake. I saw the Dovo online and knew there'd be a vid on youtube somewhere. Good thing I found a Black barber who understands lol.

[VonMilash]

good vid! I have a merkur barber pole DE razor and get great results. But I also want to "graduate" to straight razors. I bought a Magic Blade at Sally's and use half a merkur DE blade snapped in half. Does anyone have experience with that combination? I'm not getting good results.... yet all the local barbers use that combo and claim great results. any advice? thanks guys.

[DarkestElite]

I love my shavette. Its a great way to transition away from those bastardly cartridge multiblade razors. I only have the red and black plastic and the red plastic holds typical DE blades snapped in half and the black holds longer, similar to the green one here blades but they fit differently. Anyhow, very sturdy construction and easily worth every penny.

[ESSDOTCARTER]

The black is for the tondeo blade I believe.

[downtownbarberstyle]

I use the "Artist Feather razor", $80 at Appletons barber supple online. I know it is not cheap, but the wieght and balance is so nice because it is actually cast and not stamped or rolled steel... I swear by it...FYI :-)

[420159]

looks cool, i got a Diane one off amazon

appreciate your vids man

[2XAllState]

Video looking good! That new Dovo is looking very legit tho. Also i appreciate the love! Kepp doing great

[mrluton]

I'm on the Dovo then Al. I had been having the same problem with my holder and it was....CHEAP! When I did head shaves it was gruesome. But, I'm gonna step up my game. Preciate the knowledge drop and the shot out, my brother. Stay up man!

[alsmillions]

Yea, he needs to stop shaving himself yesterday, he's doing it wrong. Tell him about Bump Away.

[khbklyn1102]

but wont the green part get infected by all the germs of the skin?

[alsmillions]

Firstly, plastic can't be "infected". It can hide germs in it, but you should be cleaning that. The holder and blade should be thoroughly cleaned with Barbicide after each use. I only suggest 2 uses before you throw it away.

[Redd1587]

Good video!

[bigbread29]

I use organic root stimulator tea tree anti- bump spray after I shave. My question is do you think bump away is more effective then tea tree anti - bump spray ?

[alsmillions]

Absolutely! ORS is good and I used it before I started using Bump Away. ORS is good to stop bumps from coming and remove the burning irritation, but it doesn't work well on existing bumps. I sware by Bump Away Guaranteed.

[bigbread29]

Whats the best way to clean a straight razor ? Can I use Barbicide ?

[alsmillions]

Yes, but add just a little water so you're sure you're killing any GERMICIDE, PSEUDOMONAACIDE FUNGICIDE or VIRUCIDE. which includes the HIV virus.

[bigbread29]

Is  there a solution to prevent knicks and cuts.

[alsmillions]

Stretch the skin to make the skin tighter. It's harder to nick the skin if you're doing everything right.

[bigbread29]

Good Info good vid

[aovers]

a much appreciated video, sir.
