A Gift Just For Him!

You spoke and we listened! We had customers tell us there is a need in the greater Kings Mountain area for more gift items just for men. In order to address this need we are proud to introduce a brand new line of gifts for the men in your life. And what is the manliest activity, shaving! To capture the true sense of shaving pleasure, Mountain Holiday partnered with Parker Safety Razor. Parker is a worldwide leader in safety razor innovation and design. We believe these products represent timeless gifts that remind us of a bygone era. A time before disposable cartridge razors and shave cream in a can. 

The products offered are just like the real metal safety razors and shave soap in a mug our grandfathers, and their fathers before them, shaved with. Shaving with an actual metal safety razor can bring back the satisfaction of shaving. In order to be true to the history of shaving, not just any brand of razor would do. That is why we looked to Parker. Since 1973 Parker Safety Razor has been a family-owned and operated business from that creates shaving products manufactured to the highest standards. 

Parker safety razors have genuine brass frames, the brushes are handmade with the finest badger bristles available and the shave soaps are crafted with genuine Ethiopian sandalwood.  As a company Parker Safety Razors has a commitment to use only the finest materials to ensure the best product for our customers. This is the reason we decided to carry this line of shaving products here at Mountain Holiday. 

Why should you make the change and buy a new safety razor instead of a cartridge razor? The answer is straightforward and simple. The man in your life will enjoy shaving in this traditional manner, because shaving with a safety razor demands concentration. If shaving is to be done correctly there are steps that must be followed. Taking time to first understand the face and how hair grows is an essential part of the process. This allows shaving with a safety razor to be better for him and his skin. 

Shaving in this manner demands focus on the actual art of shaving and allows the shaver to forget about everything else. You get a few moments to yourself where you able to enjoy the traditional activity of male grooming just as it were for many decades. In some ways it can become meditative and therapeutic. Shaving is an essential skill that can be passed down and shared between fathers and sons for many generations to come.

As you view these individual razors, brushes, stands and bowls we hope you agree with us that each is an artful piece that adds a manly aesthetic to any bathroom. We have on hand several different varieties of shave soap, all with distinct scents. We are confident there is one you will surely find soothing.  In addition to being visually appealing and physically stimulating these products are more cost effective in the long run. While there is the initial purchase price up front, the long-term cost of double side safety razors is much less than the cost of even the cheapest cartridge razors.

If you are looking for a unique gift for Father’s Day or Graduation, and one that will last for years to come give our Parker Razors supplies a look. Stop by and view our in stock selection. Feel the weight of the razors, the softness of the brushes or the scent of the soaps.

We look forward to serving you at Mountain Holiday and to help you take home a gift that is sure to become a family treasure for your loved one.
