I have always used Gillette Shaving Foam, especially in Mumbai Suburban for a clean shave at an air-conditioned barbershop. And I pay Rs. 80.
But this time during the tour to Delhi, one of the barbers at Daryaganj applied Brooks Shaving Foam and charged – Rs. 30.
And another barber at Arakashan Road, Paharganj, Delhi, I paid Rs. 50 for Gillette Shaving Foam clean shave.
At Chawri Bazar, Delhi, I paid Rs. 40 for Gillette Shaving Foam clean shave.
When I reached Zirakpur, Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar (Mohali), my cousin’s brother took me to a barbershop that was non-air-conditioned but a good one.
The barber applied Cimelle Shaving Foam for a clean shave and charged – Rs. 40 only.
Now I have experienced three types of shaving foam – Gillette, Brooks, and Cimelle. The difference?
No idea. All I can say – a clean shave was as good as in Mumbai Suburban barbershop.
