There was a time, not so long ago, when a man could head down to his local barber shop get a great haircut, a hot lather straight razor shave, and relax in a place where a man could be a man? Well that place still exist, its The Rooster's Nest Barber Shop and Shaving Parlour. Stepping into The Rooster's Nest is stepping back in time to a place where men shined their shoes, kept a tight crease in their pants, and they sure as heck kept their hair looking sharp. From the 1955 barber chairs to the walls full of pictures of a time long since gone, The Rooster's Nest is the perfect place to get one of our “13 step Straight Razor Shaves”. Put a record on the hi-fi, Grab a drink out of our old fridge, thumb through an issue of “Bachelor Pad” magazine, and relax in a real man's sanctuary. A real barber shop isn't a thing of the past. Common down to The Rooster's Nest. Its a place you can call your own.

Inside the Rooster’s Nest, Brian the Barber, has a few helpful hints to make your shave much better! We also have included the price of the products so you can stop by and pick them up from the shop.
1. Always shave after you get out of the shower. The hot water and steam softens the hair.
2. Apply pre-shave oil before you lather your face. ($25)
3. Break away from using razors with multi-blade cartridges. Purchase a real man’s Safety Razor that take a single double edge razor blade.
(Safety razor $28-$7; razor blades .25-$1.50)
4. Put a cold, damp towel in the freezer before you get in the shower. Apply the cold towel to your face for one minute after shaving. This helps to close your pores and calm any irritation.
5. Apply facial moisturizer to soften and relax skin.
(J.S. Sloan moisturizer $25)
Gentlemen, the real message here is, you can buy a cheap razor or an “expensive” fancy razor with quadruple blade action…but what happens when it’s time to buy a new one? You don’t. You keep trying to use the same razor for as long as possible. That is what causes you to not only tear up your face, but cause extreme irritation. It’s time to get a real razor. Stop by and see us…we won’t steer you wrong.
