Yikes! Barbers are usually skilled .. But eh. I wouldn't. ESP since they use the same blade on everyone?
Plus neck shaving freaks me out

If you go to a reputable barber shop, I would say do it. Just make sure they clean their straight edges well and you should be good to go.

Getting a real old-fashioned barber shave is one of my husband’s favorite indulgences! He’s never been cut during a shave. The one he goes to now is a salon and they do a sort of mini-facial at the same time, and use lots of lather and hot towels – you should look for a place like that; it’s a really nice service!

The barber should be properly cleaning the blade after every client, so the risk of diseases is low, and/or replacing the blade after every client (this is what they do where my husband goes). I would just ask how they clean the blade if you are concerned.

No way!!

My husband got one on our wedding day at the place where he has gotten his hair cut for years. It was awesome! My husband has a weird beard, lol. So having a straight edge shave made his face so soft and he didn't have to shave for a couple days after! I wish he could get it done more often.

@dagret: bahahaha!!!

legs? maybe! idk....

my sister actually bought that type of razor and the dusting brush for my brother! he likes it
