While shopping at my local Sam’s Club, I was surprised to find they carried The Art of Shaving Products. The price was agreeable, so I grabbed a jar of TAOS’ Sandalwood Shaving Cream and had a shave with it this morning!:)

If you don’t have a Sam’s Club nearby, you can always purchase online. It’s worth it!:)

The Calypso Open Comb Safety Razor is a razor anyone can use. However, as noted on the Calypso product page, “Black men needed an affordable razor that was engineered from the ground up to suit their unique shaving requirements. They are plagued by ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and razor burn. CALYPSO answers the call with a very gentle open comb head, a heavyweight handle, and precision design.”

Calypso is a VERY mild, yet highly efficient, safety razor! I take it for spin.
