Luxury British brand STAG have just released their all new S2 “Grande” Shaving Razor.
The boutique Male Grooming Brand have celebrated the launch of their new, mouth-wateringly slick and shiny Safety Razor by crowdfunding the new edition to their collection on Kickstarter. Check it out here: www.kickstarter.com
We spoke to Luke Whitehead, the founder behind the Brand, about why he feels the new release is the best shaving razor available on the market.
“It’s important to get every day off to the perfect start, and that starts with your morning routine. We wanted to bring to market something extraordinary to help the consumer become a morning person again.”
“Everything we make is designed and crafted in England and built to last. We based the design on the Stag antler in keeping with the brand; the streamlined curve sits perfectly in your hand. The shape allows your fingers to wrap naturally around the razor handle meaning you’re in complete control of your shave. We’ve perfected Razor handle ergonomics”.
In a class of its own, this Double Edge Safety Razor is crafted from British Stainless Steel by expert steelworkers in Sheffield, England.
Each piece is then hand polished before the iconic “Stag” logo is embossed on the Stainless Steel razor base. The polished shine is truly mouthwatering.
Quintessentially British, this is a razor to be proud of.
What is a Safety Razor?
Shaving was once such a dangerous activity it was restricted to the local barber shop. Three centuries ago, with the introduction of the Safety Razor, the braver of Men began shaving in their own homes, through the art of Wet Shaving.
After softening the skin and facial hair through the lathering of soap across the face, the Safety Razor is then used, similar to any other razor, to remove facial hair. The Safety Razor uses one double edge blade, meaning no multi blade cartridges that chew up your face and invert your hairs.
You’re certainly going to shave some time off your mornings if you stick to your plastic shaving routine. Wet Shaving is not for the hurried. If you want to enjoy the experience of using your Safety Razor, set 10 minutes aside to encompass the oiling, lathering, brushing, shaving, and moisturising; it’s quite the commotion. So just like you wouldn’t enjoy rushing a candle lit bubble bath with a background drop of Beethoven, this is your relaxation time. It’s important to take your time and enjoy the moment.
The Safety Razor is making an encouraging and worthy comeback as men are investing more time in their Grooming routines, and I for one say Men deserve it. The art of Wet Shaving continues to boom as the Men’s Grooming industry is now bigger than ever.
The razor has currently reached a 200% backing on Kickstarter and is also available to buy online at StagEngland.com
