    Yesterday was the 2nd annual Maggard Razors wet shaving event at their store in Adrian Michigan and it was quite the success.

    Hosted by Brad and Casie Maggard

    There were a few wet shaving celebrities there including the Shave Den's own @SHAVEWIZARD420 who I was fortunate to meet.

    And plenty of shopping opportunity from Maggard's massive inventory.

    Here's a couple more vendors I missed in my first post

    and you could even get a haircut at their in-store barbershop

    All in all - a great day and a great event

    Can't wait till next year

    Hats off to Maggards for hosting the shave meet. I was glad to see so many people showed up, and it was cool to talk to other wet shavers, and the people behind some of the products.

    Looks like a great event! I'm glad you guys got to attend. Maybe some more of these meet-ups or conventions will start to spread around the country.

    Thanks for tagging me in the post. It was good to meet you John, had a great time talking about shaving gear. If they have another shave meet next year I will be there for sure, it was cool to talk to other people in person about wet shaving, rather than online.

    Looks really great. But I had no idea there were "shaving celebrities"! Wow, that is just too cool! (or nerdy, I can't decide). Hats off to Maggards and @SHAVEWIZARD420!

    I really wanted to go, just way to many last minute family commitments. If the weather was a little better, perhaps I would have made more of an effort;). Woke up to some snow this morning, ugh!

    closest one to me appears to be at the Foxwoods Casino in CT. I'd just go for the shaving info, not to gamble!

    Thanks Herm, it was fun to talk with people about wet shaving and meet some soap makers, but I like to think of everyone being on the same level, rather than "celebrities" since we are just regular people with a hobby. It was a great time and hopefully there will be many more to come.
