Maggard Razors

Maggard Razors is a Mecca for those interested in wet shaving (soap and brush). They have an absolutely astonishing number of soaps and aftershaves in various scents available for sale (with testers for each so you can find one that is perfect for you) and they also have one of the best varieties of double-​edge razors I have ever seen including their own brand (which are excellent) as well as modern Merkur, Muhle, and others and a few vintage razors for sale as well. If you’re into straight razors, they apparently also not only sell them but also hone and restore new or vintage straights. They even have a huge selection of shaving brushes and other paraphernalia for the shaving enthusiast.
My first experience with Maggard was buying some materials from their online store, but after having made a trip to their storefront, I am even more impressed. Their staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Make the trip — you will not be disappointed.

I love this place. I only use the virtual storefront since I’m not local, but the customer service and products here are top notch. I like the other reviewer learned about Maggard from reddit’s /​r/​wicked_​edge shaving forum. I wasn’t new to double edge shaving, but my gear had previously been cheap and poor quality. My first order here was for a pile of new software (lathers, aftershaves, pre-​shave oils) and hardware (blades mostly). The difference between my original gear and the new upgrades was like night and day.
For anyone looking at getting into DE shaving, the Maggard branded gear is top notch. They offer a beginner kit that combines a razor, synthetic brush, lather, and blades that are affordable and comparable to many higher priced options, you can’t go wrong. I personally love their «sampler» packs of lather and oils. Since I’m remote and can’t try them in person, this is the next best option. They pack down full size tubs into tiny sample sizes so you can smell and try them out at home before committing to a full size tub of something new. I’ve got probably 20 samplers in my drawer now waiting to try.
Customer service has also been super quick and helpful. I bought the women’s DE set for my fiancé for Christmas (she loves it! happy to spend less and get a better shave than her cartridge). But after a few days she noticed the razor (a Maggard MR19c) had an uneven blade (one side stuck out more than the other). I sent them an email asking if this was normal and included a few pictures. Less than an hour later and they’d already let me know they were shipping out a replacement head for it. Extremely happy with the response and I’m sure they’ll keep getting my business and referrals since we don’t have a local shave shop around us.
The stainless steel razors (handles only, heads are still pot metal) and high quality «cooked» Italian style soaps are the the main draw here. Great prices and the lathers and aftershaves have given me the best shaves of my life. The hardest part is not buying all of them.
For those using the eshop, the shipping has been crazy fast. My few orders have all shipped within 24 hours (usually even same day) and come via priority mail with 2 – 3 days tops. They’ve been beating Amazon Prime in speed and offering products I can’t get via Amazon (my normal shopping place).
The owners are active on /​r/​wicked_​edge and very interactive with the community. Highly recommend them and hope they stay around.

I’ve been shopping with Maggard Razors for all of my shaving gear and needs since I started (approximately 6 – 7 months ago) and would be hard-​pressed to consider another store to purchase. The amount of diversity in shaving products is huge, and for someone getting started, it can be hard to figure out where to start.
Luckily, with my first purchase, I was able to order a ton of samples to help me figure out what I do and don’t like. They were quick to respond to my order and let me know they had it received (even though it was a weekend) and shipped it out ASAP, with a shipping notice in my inbox by the afternoon on the next business day.
Based on the variety in products that Maggard Razors offers, as well as their outstanding customer service and their fast shipping, I will always be a supporter of them and their store will always be my first stop for future purchases.

Great selection + Great prices + Fast shipping.

I’ve been shopping Maggard’s now for about 10 months, and every order has been a wonderful experience. Within the hour of placing my order I get a text from Casey Maggard to let me know the order was received and when it will ship. The business continues to grow so I don’t know how much longer she can continue to do that, but wow, talk about personal service! So impressive and so kind. The selection of shaving products continues to grow, and the prices are the lowest I’ve seen compared to other shaving sites. They carry a huge selection of shaving supplies, safety and straight razors, and Brad Maggard also offers honing and reconditioning services for straight razors. As they grow into their new space in 2015, I wish you both the very best — can’t say enough good about you guys. Hands down the best shaving service and supply site on the internet!

Maggard Razors is a small business that sells shaving gear, soaps, creams, and also services straight razors. Their stock is diverse, including products from large and small companies. Both women and men can find products that suit their needs. I was impressed that not only could I buy many different kinds of shaving soaps, but I could even sample several of the brands.
I learned about Maggard Razors on Reddit. The owners are active posters on the Wicked_​Edge subreddit — always willing to offer support, suggestions, information, etc. Other members told stories of their experiences with Maggard Razors (typically involving multiple return trips or long-​distance purchases) and I knew I wanted to give them a try.
For my first order, I wanted to try samples of their own soaps and oils. Less than 24 hours after placing my order, I received an email saying my order had shipped. It arrived soon after. Did I mention that the shipping fee was less than expected?! I liked the fact that they weren’t trying to make a profit on the shipping charge.
I have only tried 1 of the soaps and 1 of the oils because each of the samples lasts through several shaves. So far, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of their brand and with their customer service in general. I’m looking forward to placing another order in the near future.
