Since we launched King of Shaves in the USA way back in 2000, we've been pleased to work with Paul Mole, the iconic men's 73rd & Lexington men's 'old school' barber owned by Adrian Wood. Although King of Shaves has always tried to be in the forefront of product innovation (shaving oils, aloe based magnetized gels etc). getting a great shave is more than the software, it's the hardware too, and the technique.
So, a big up to Diane Wood, his 26 year old master barberess (if there is such a thing) and Roberto, who removed Letterman's beard, which has been growing away since the start of the strike of the Writer's Guild of America. How nerve wracking would that have been - the worry that you might nick Letterman with a cut-throat razor (sensibly they chose an injector straight edge rather than the sort Sweeney Todd migh wield, and even better, Diane used some of our King of Shaves shaving oil. How do I know this - well check out this article in the New York Observer here.
Well done Diane - I look forward to catching up with you at Paul Mole in a week or so, when I'm in town to attend a 'space age' event being hosted by one Richard Branson - I'll certainly be getting a King of Shaves from Paul Mole for that!
