Unpopular opinion: I think the classic straight razor shave is overrated for most guys now
I did about 20 of them last month at my shop in Dayton, and honestly, half the clients said it was cool but they wouldn't pay the extra $25 for it again. It takes way longer and the cleanup is a pain for what feels like a novelty. Do you all still push them, or is it better to just focus on killer fades and beard work?

Yeah, the "cool but not worth the extra" feeling is real. I gave myself a straight razor neckline once and looked like I lost a fight with a house cat (sorry @the_dylan, it's not always life changing). The cleanup alone makes me think most guys just want a good shave, not a whole show.

It's just a shave, man. Not a life changing event.

Man, I get that... sometimes people act like a perfect shave is this huge deal but really it's just another morning chore. Props for keeping it simple, not everything needs to be a whole production.
