How To Shave Off A Beard Using A Feather Kamisori | The Daily Shave

[@jeffthebarber8259]

Not hating on ya brother, but your blade angle, your pressure, and your strokes need a lot of work...

[@tonymaurice4157]

He took all the hair off and it looks fine!

[@ethicaladvocate1452]

Jeff I know it's been 2 years, but please do elaborate... I'm Interested to hear a Barbers perspective.

[@DevanArya]

@@ethicaladvocate1452 Look at 04:00, he almost glides it perpendicular to the skin and he looks like using a shitload of pressure. The blade should be around 25º do 35º degrees to the skin and you shouldn't apply pressure at all. Let the weight of the blade do the work.

[@MegaMar20]

The angle dude

[@Tim._..]

You might want to try COLD water shaving. The skin will be less puffy and tender and so therefore you will get less nicks and irritation. It will also make your blade last longer as metal becomes soft when it is hot.

[@dolx2861]

I think this may very well be one of the bloodiest shaves ever, wow.

[@SneakyCrocodile]

It gets way bloodier if you hesitate and place the whole blade down without moving. When you use a styptic on a long gash it feels like you’re being stung by many angry hornets and blood doesn’t stop coming out for awhile. I bet what he did hurts a lot too though because as I’m typing this he just lathered and shaved over all those cuts!!

[@abdullahal-shimri3091]

@@SneakyCrocodile imagine how he felt after applying aftershave...

[@Mdxmp5]

😱😱😱😱

[@tp8126]

Reminds me of that movie. Texus chainsaw massacre.

[@davidwatson3035]

You need to add the word "not" to your title.

[@leesteely8875]

Perhaps consider some of the feather proguard blades until your blade angle control is more consistent

[@KillerofGods]

I know this is old, but I tried those and my beard is too tough for it. Felt like it was pulling out my hair and that the blade was dull. Tried multiple blades of it and it was all the same.

[@johnnydanger1305]

You’re shaving with an almost 90 degree angle instead of closer to a 45 degree. No wonder its hard on you and the noise feedback should have told you to change the angle

[@gpietra]

Well put! And I'd recommend a even lower angle for this particular razor

[@sterlingcampbell2116]

Yeah, I do about 15 degrees when I use my SS

[@totalanthony]

Someone get this man a blood transfusion stat!

[@marianoandrespucheta6202]

This is why they call him, the butcher

[@sonnakabana]

LMAO🤣

Te cortaste todo bo.lu.do

[@jacoporubini4308]

why does not anyone use the Feather blade dispenser as it should be used? It's damn easy to use guys!

[@RaveChanSunanto]

I cried watching this 😭

[@michaelorsini9695]

Nice shave Michael. This razor along with its folding brother are my favorite razors to use. This razor takes some getting use to but once you get the hang of it, it's a joy to use. I have a fairly rough beard but I get such a close shave with it that I can often skip a day shaving. I like to start by going up the neck and even up the sides of my face. It cuts down on nicks and cuts and improves your confidence using this particular razor. I find short , quick strokes at a 45 degree angle the most efficient method CHEERS!

[@alexk3948]

Nice shave? It was a disaster, but credit to him for uploading it anyway.

[@IAMCDB]

Ouch. I give him credit, he went for it. A for effort:)

[@gpietra]

Too much blood. It's not a freaking rake. And stretch your skin. I shave with that thing everyday and I seldom see nicks.

[@thunderbird3694]

I butchered myself like that a couple years ago with my Dovo Shavette, but I tried it again the other day with only one cut from when I accidentally touched the blade vertically to my upper lip. I find it easier to shave with straight razor than the shavette

[@oliverk191]

Surprisingly easy to do once you get the angles down haven't yet done a Sweeney Todd thanks to this video

[@PanopticMotion]

Thanks for sharing, congrats on your first video! I suggest stretching your skin and creating denser lather to afford additional slickness to get the blade going.

[@magnoliamike]

I have the *CJB* Kamasori. It’s $25 and just as good.

[@IamFreeRu]

I just bought the Feather Komisori and ProGuard Blades. It will arrive tomorrow. Decided to switch after using Gillette Mach 3 and Fusion razors, because the quality of those razors has gone down significantly in my opinion. And I want a closer shave.

[@redstrat1234]

How 'NOT' To Shave Off A Beard Using A Feather Kamisori - there, I fixed that for you...

[@evanstheframe]

Was looking into getting one of these. I guess taking off a full beard causes more nicks but man that’s a lot of nicks. Someone point me to a video that makes me still want to get one.

[@Joe_Friday]

Look at Farzad the Happy Barber's videos. The beards melt off.

[@joescarpelliiii8637]

This guy is using a very aggressive blade angle which is why he's cutting himself so much.

[@smackgibbs]

Geofatboy does it right

[@SneakyCrocodile]

Still get one do not hesitate! See this video as a what not to do video and check out more videos. The DX is very comparable to straight razors although slightly more aggressive until you master it then some people even prefer it over straights for more than just convenience of not having to maintain the blade.

[@Tonys_Podium]

I find that if I let my beard grow I get more razor rash than shaving more frequently.

[@mos3134]

Man, I predicted all your nicks. Towards the end of your each stroke, you move sideways a mm or 2. A folding one might be more appropriate for you and practice without the blade and than with the soft guard for a while before moving up the professional or super blades. And for the tip of your chin, try cutting sideways, rather than insisting on the cross hair.

[@Geralt_of-Rivia]

Nothing against this man, but he is absolutely NOT experienced enough to be giving us a demonstration on how to shave with a straight razor or shavette(replaceable blade straight razor) of any kind, at all. This guy needs tons more experience, like jeez, that was pretty bad 😬😬

[@smackgibbs]

Either this guy’s doing some off camera magic or he’s superhuman. Where’s all the blood going? Idk it just takes a little more than scrubbing a towel across my cuts to get them to stop bleeding.

[@ZeppelinFan70]

Perhaps cut the beard off with clippers first so you can condition the skin with pre-shave oil or some other slickener. Your face took a beaten from that Kamosori. It's a no joke razor. Anyway, nice video.

[@sonnakabana]

Somebody should edit this and run AC/DC If you want Blood in the background.

[@Kufojohn]

Massacre!!!

[@RackwitzG]

Just like only women like short hair (on women), only men like beards. Good that it's gone. I'll give you credit for the difficulty of shaving off such long hair, which is more difficult than an every day shave. Lather too thin (no protection) and angle of razor mostly bad. A bit better towards the end. But you've been sh/tbombed for that already. ;) The "fool's pass" at the very end is impressing.

[@kentwong3818]

dude your shaving technique is way too aggressive. You went perpendicular through some points of the video.......no wonder there was so much blood

[@markojeremic0349]

do you have a better beard since you started shaving every day

[@donovanlb79]

I would rather take a beard trimmer and then straight razor.

[@sonnakabana]

Agreed. That's how barber's do it.

[@thejoelvic]

Brutal

[@LatherFace]

Way to go - our first a kitchen sink shave!! Did you notice a lot of blade chatter? Thanks for the video, Mike!

[@leonardo95218]

This boy is going to bleed!

[@anthony-ju6qo]

Not only was this hard to watch but when you load the blade, just insert the tip of the injector into the blade head. No need to touch the blade when loading it.

[@abefrohman1759]

Shavette are very unforgiving but overall not bad at all. 💈👍💈

[@TheYoggSaron]

It's not just a shavette. It's feather. This razor should be handled with extra caution! Not the way this guy did on the video.

[@abdullahal-shimri3091]

@@TheYoggSaron so a feather is more sharper than a shavette? Man, I'm just sticking to my good old straight razors which I honed on waterstones.

[@vintagelife5195]

Nothing beats a straight for removing longer beards. Very cool.

[@nichts_als_die_Wahrheit]

08:00 What a massacre!

[@jonathanlewis4077]

😮 👂 that feedback super crunchy lol

[@garyroman3196]

This is exactly why I hardly ever use my Feater Kamisori-it doesn’t shave me any better than my Feather-loaded Merkur DE and it makes me bleed like a stuck pig. Plus, one slip and you can do some real damage. Not sure what the advantage is.

[@Tonys_Podium]

I use a Kamisori to tidy up my side burns. The Merkur Futur isn’t easy to get a sharp edge on the side burns. Also useful under the nose.

[@heroe1486]

The advantage is a cleaner shave and more precision if you have a beard or moustache. You just need to know how to use it, seriously I'm still a beginner and still hold a shavette better than him and his 90 degrees. Claiming there are no advantages is like saying a car has no advantages compared to a bicycle because you don't have your license.

[@marianoandrespucheta6202]

This is why they call him, the butcher.

[@why_so_serious]

Lol 🤣👍

[@The120700561]

Is that razor blade specific?

[@scraig2344]

Is it just me or did others find this oddly satisfying??

[@j.c1650]

I feel better about my weekend shave with Jasons machete you sir used Michaels Myers kitchen knife ja we both need alot of practice 👍😆aswome job

[@hello.abraham]

I would have used pre shave oil, pre shave cream, a steamer, and numbing cream if I ever tempted to do this. Props!

[@MDVA44]

Abraham Villela Your not the only one that would take that rout Abraham. I would do all that and then some to prevent razor burn and weepers. I would also have a bucket of ice on standby

[@Illuminati089]

You know u can inject the blade right into the razor?

[@AleDiEsse]

you need to extend the skin with the hand man. first rule to use these razors

[@thecutthroatjourney]

I give you an A for effort definitely but this was painful to watch. Your angle needs to be more around 20 degrees with these things. I love this Feather SS though.

[@KillerofGods]

Yeah like, I swear he had that thing close to 90 degrees sometimes. I mean IDR what I did for my upper lip, I do remember getting Nick's on there with the razorine. IDR on the feather, gonna start shaving again, take a break from my beard.

[@sheshaveswithjill4838]

Nice debut. Ouchie on those cuts and the bloodletting.

[@S_Mendez_28]

Kitchen sink huh? This may be the solution to my 'one bathroom, constant interruptions' dilemma. Did you use a mirror?

[@JMgottcpip]

Oh boy...

This is one of the worst techniques I've ever seen.

this hurts to watch as much as it does for him to shave.

Wow that was painful to watch. I think you're pressing too hard on the razor - I used to make the same mistake when I was a newbie. You pretty much hacked your entire face!

Use a safety razor , does dangerous
