Don Draper
Mad men, which is set in the 1960’s around the men (and women) of Madison Avenue who develop the art of spin and really what advertising is today. Is set to return for another season starting Sunday on AMC (check your local cable/satellite listings). I love this show, first its total guy/dude/dad sprinkle in the women (who were still fighting for equal rights at the time this is set is clearly being shown). Beyond that its just awesome how much cooler things look then compared to now… yes I’m a total retro junkie but you know what everything was made better back then (heck even iphones were made better a year or two ago – lol [I’m an apple lover just needed to put it out there])… But really the cars built there are still running today, the furniture built then was solid like toss two toddlers on the desk and let them jump and not a dent – today you’d have two kids on the floor crying with splintered polyboard wood chips around them.
One thing I love about Don Draper is in the show which we’ve now reached mid-1960’s we only seen Don unshaven like once! So I gotta ask how does he get that amazing shave?! it must be the Art of Shaving, I’ll admit I’m not a razor user daily I’m really more of a once a week kind of guy… I like the stubble – my wife hates it.
I’ve used Art of Shaving products in the past – they really make shaving something a little retro and something very cool. I could never get as close with my electric razor then I can with a straight raiser and using some of the products in this art of shaving kit makes that shave last a little longer and get a lot closer because if you can raise the hairs, then you’ll cut them closer (which will help save off that 4 o’clock shadow a few hours longer).
Sure this could be your fake business card… or you can use

I am safety razor man myself… which is, by the way, how Don Draper has such a close shave 😉 But alas in these days of no sharp objects on planes I do use the less conspicuous Gillette blades when traveling with carry on for business.
I RT the giveaway 🙂

I prefer to use an old-style double-edge safety razor for my usual shaves. I had a professional straight-shave from Art of Shaving yesterday, though, and LOVED it!
Oh, and I followed you on Twitter and tweeted about the contest, too. 😀
I shave using the Power Fusion razor. I’ve seen ads for the Fusion ProGlide razors and would love to try it. I’m betting they will be a big winner for me!

Oh, I would so like to win this for my husband. He shaves with an electric- not as often as I'd like.
We passed The Art of Shaving the other day and totally talked about how old school romantic the shop is.
He needs a close, close shave. That way my face wouldn't look like a strawberry whenever we make out!
I already follow you on Twitter because I'm cool like that.
My husband uses gillette fusuin razors!! I would love to win this for him!
