Shaving soap & cream scents From Mississippi!

I am new to DE shaving. I am using Omega shaving creme, and I love the scent. My primary use of supplies is west coast shaving, but I order online and don't know what these soaps & cremes smell like... I don't want to waste my money, and in Memphis I don't know where any wet shaving stores are. Thanks!

 

The Shave Den store is a GREAT place to shop. You can buy samples of different creams/soaps. Welcome to the den!

 

I have the same Omega soap. I really like the scent. It was originally given to my son but he did not like the way it smelled, so I ended up with it. My gain!

 

Welcome to the Den......ditto on the Shave Den Store....The samples are a great way to try them out!!

 

Thank y'all!

 

If you want to buy a can't miss. Cella..

 

Thank you. As soon as my omega goes I plan on trying all types. I will keep this in mind.

 

FYI. That'll last almost a year. Nothing wrong with using what you have up. Happy shaving!

 

I'm in Mississippi, too, and have not found any decent places to shop for shaving supplies. The Bath & Body Works here does not even carry C. O. Bigelow shave cream! I have to agree that TSD store shaving cream/soap sampler is the way to go. I haven't found any other site offering as many options for a sampler as they do. Best of luck!

 

I'm in Northwest MS right outside of Memphis. I know Memphis has some "somewhere" but I can't find em. From what I saw online they're expensive as well. The sampler does seem the only way to go until I settle on something.

 

Welcome to The Shave Den!

 

I think you have an answer on the sampler issue so I will simply say:

Welcome to the Den.

We know you'll fit right in.

So grab yourself a comfy chair,

and give our threads a spin!

Thank you for all of yalls hospitality!

 

In Mississippi as well! I have heard that one of the clothing stores on the square in Oxford has some shaving soap at really high prices. I have not been to Oxford , though. In Jackson a Crabtree & Evelyn and a L'occitane just opened. Crabtree & Evelyn have quite a few soaps and creams. ( I have only tried the West Indies Lime cream. It is pretty good cream for me. ) L'occitane only has one soap but it is great. IMHO.

If I where closer to Memphis. I would call around to Barber Shops and see if they carry any wet shaving supplies. Seems like at least one would have something.

 

That's a good idea. I know there is a store in Memphis that has an Art of Shaving place but sells outrageously high anyhow, also I can't find it. Jackson is 4 hours from here, but I wish it wasn't. I'll have to check Oxford out ASAP. Thank you for your help!

I am esstatic to be apart of such an awesome community where we can discuss the bliss and tranquility that comes from wet shaving. Being fairly new, I have learned right of the bat that it is most certianly an art as well.
I look forward to communicating and learning from everyone, whether it be about an awesome cream or soap to different razors. I have already found, within a day, improvements I can make on my lather alone. Thank y'all for this forum!

 

We're glad you're here! The more friendly folks who participate, the greater the wealth of knowledge and experience becomes here at TSD.
