My first straight-razor shave

Last Friday, I experienced my first straight-razor shave, the old-school barbershop shave that you usually see only in old movies. Our client, Chris Hurn of Mercantile Commercial Capital, recently launched a new franchise business called Kennedy's All-American Barber Club which features old-fashioned hair cuts and shaves in a 21st century, slick environment. Chris and his guys were exhibiting at the Franchise Expo South in Miami Beach and invited me for a free shave.

It was most definitely the closest shave I have ever had, and I told them in my video testimonial that it turns a chore into an experience. Look for Kennedy's franchises when you travel (mainly in Orlando at the moment) and give them a try.
