I started wet shaving with a DE razor about a month ago with my standard shaving lubricant (I’ve used hair conditioner for years) and the results are great! I can’t imagine how disposables caught on. I wanted to get into some real purpose made product and Chiseled Face has done great sounding scents, so I ordered a sample pack of the soap and aftershave. Anybody familiar with their goods? I’m excited to try the Ghost Town Barber and Cedar Spice. https://www.chiseledface.com | ||

Conditioner? I’ve always used either Col. Conk, Williams, or Arko, but I never even considered conditioner. Any particular brand or attributes that you prefer? | |||

I have cryogen soap and aftershave from them, which i like. It is seriously cold (menthal), but unscented. I've wanted to try ghost town barber from them. I seem to recall it is scented with gun powder (fragrance anyway, whatever that actually means). | |||

Looks like it's tallow soap, so that's a plus. | |||

I read somewhere that it does a good job of softening hair in prep for a shave and is slippery enough to prevent tugging. It actually works. Towards the end of my hot shower I put it on the face and let it sit a few before shaving. But I’d like to try the traditional brush method now. I think they say the Ghost Town Barber is the traditional barber shop scent (that I really enjoy) plus hints of gunpowder, leather, and I think whiskey? | |||

Mantic59 has mentioned conditioner in his youtube vids before. What I like about good shave soaps is they provide similar results. They soften the hair and provide more "slickness" than shaving creams. | |||

Told cops where to go for over 29 years… |
I have their Santa Paula and Summer Storm, happy with both. If you want try a variety without committing too much cash, https://www.maggardrazors.com sells samplers of all the big names, including Chisled Face, that are good for about 5 shaves. What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???  | |||

Have used almost all of CFG's products for years and they're great; they have some unique scents, although they tend to linger - depends on what you're looking for. They used to have a great pre-shave as well, but haven't seen it on their site lately.

Dang! Grew up there and always laughed at the citrus capital signs. I guess someone took them seriously. It is a cool little town with a great airport. | |||

"Chiseled Face" doesn't exactly call to mind a clean and comfortable shave experience, for me. | |||

Just opened a tub of Ghost Town Barber for the first time. Not sure I really like the scent. Time will tell. I'm a big fan of Stirling shaving soaps. My favorite is Barbershop. It smells like "soap" instead of perfume. I think the Stirling lathers better as well. Try the website Badger & Blade. They test everything imaginable for shaving. | |||

I have Midnight Stag aftershave, and it is a very masculine scent. Leather, petroleum, tobacco it is unique. I like it but I don't wear it all the time. For after shaves I actually prefer FINE accouterments http://www.fineaccoutrements.com/default.asp ------------------------------ Smart is not something you are but something you get.

I had very high hopes for Ghost Town Barber and while I like it, it’s not what I expected. My favorite from the sample pack is Sherlock, without a doubt. | |||
