The only place I know of to get one is "Art of Shaving." Anyone know of anywhere else better? I've been asked to try out the experience and write it up.

Paul Mole Barber Shop - 212-535-8461 - 1031 Lexington Ave New York, NY 10021 (73rd & 74th)

There is a particular fellow there (I cannot recall his name) who is well known for his service.

They use one of those disposable shavette "straight razors" which do not have the "true feel" of a real razor.

Just drive up to about 180th St (Juan Pablo Duarte Avenue) and ask the first Dominican guy you see in the street, I'm sure you can get a nice shave for about 10 bucks in that area.

Enjoy!
