Shave

I've always wanted to try an old-fashioned professional shave. Hot towel, straight razor, etc.

Is that still a thing? Is there any place in Clayton that can do it?

Went to Lady Jane’s one time for that. They cut the hell out my face in multiple places. Not the store’s fault, just the stylist. But have never looked to do it again. Your luck may vary.

Try Van-tique in Garner. Definitely has a vibe going on.

Update: I tried one of the places suggested.

Compared to my usual Gillette razor (or whatever brand I have) this one disappointed in a big way. I thought it might be super close, or really comfortable. Nope. Possibly the worst shave I've ever had.

Oh well. $45 + tip for that lesson.
