About Shaving Time
Established in 2014
Shaving Time started for a simple reason — most men are putting up with bad shaves and thinking it’s normal.
Razor burn. Irritation. Ingrown hairs. Cheap razors that feel disposable.
We’ve been told that shaving is supposed to be quick, harsh, and “just something to get through.”
It doesn’t have to be like that.
We believe shaving should feel comfortable, work properly for your skin, and use tools that are built to last — not plastic cartridges that get thrown away every week.
More Than Just a Shaving Shop
Shaving Time isn’t about selling the most products. It’s about helping you use the right ones.
Whether you’re:
- Completely new to traditional shaving
- Struggling with sensitive skin
- Tired of razor burn
- Looking to upgrade from supermarket gear
We focus on quality razors, blades, soaps, and brushes that are known for performance — not hype.
Every product we stock is chosen because it does a job properly.
Built on Real Advice, Not Sales Pressure
Traditional shaving can feel overwhelming at first — blades, brushes, soaps, techniques. Most people just want someone to tell them what actually works.
That’s what we’re here for.
We help customers choose setups that suit:
✔ Skin type
✔ Beard type
✔ Experience level
No upselling for the sake of it. Just gear that works together and makes shaving easier.
Trusted by the Community
Hundreds of customers have switched their routine and noticed:
- Less irritation
- Closer shaves
- Better skin comfort
- A shave they actually enjoy
That’s why we’re proud to be highly rated by customers across the UK — not because of marketing, but because the results speak for themselves.
Our Goal
To help you stop putting up with uncomfortable shaves and start using tools that make a real difference.
Because shaving shouldn’t feel like a chore — and it definitely shouldn’t leave your skin paying the price.
Shaving time history
Established in 2014
I was intrigued and wanted to try it. There was a slight problem with this, in that you could only buy buy it direct from Stirling, now being a Scotsman does have its advantages and one of those is not to pay the odds for something if you can figure out an idea to get it cheaper. Shipping plus taxes for 1 or 2 soaps direct was not frugal in any way, shape or form so I decided to contact Rod & Mandy Lovan, the owners of The Stirling Soap Company and made a proposition via Skype to purchase 50 Shaving Soaps, create a website and sell them in the UK. I think that Rod took a shine to me.
The Shaving Time Company was born in 2014, it was a rudimentary hand written website and sales didn't blossom, in fact if I sold 1 puck a week, it was party time, being Scottish any excuse can be manipulated to have a party.
There have been many website versions and the one you see now is a result of my learning, my investment and my down right determination to force everyone to enjoy what I enjoy, that being a damned fine daily shave. I believe that when a Man shaves, that time is his own, it's his quiet time, a time to contemplate life, the past, the present and the future, it's also a time to think about his next visit to the pub and what the weekends football results will be. After all we are men, we are not complicated and easily pleased.
I think that you will see with clarity what inspired the name Shaving Time, I love the name, it describes exactly what it is all about.
Shaving Time continues to grow, we have a fantastic customer base who just keep coming back. I must be doing something right and whatever that is, i will continue to do it.
