The idea for Thirsty Badger came to me in 2017 when I first started traditional wet shaving. I was always enamored with the idea of shaving like the fine gents who came before me and with the notion of passing this excellent tradition on to my son. Once introduced to the hobby, I was blown away by the variety of products available to me. Vintage hardware, over 100 years old, preserved in time and performing like the day it was made. New items created for the new generation of wet shaver. I tried products from large commercial brands, small artisan creators and everything in between. Wanting to keep track of all of this wonderful information, I decided to write about my experiences. Add to that my passion for web development and my wife’s love of pottery, and you have the birth of the Thirsty Badger  Shave Company.

If you’re interested in trying any of our products out, that’s great! I’d love to hook you up! But if I’m honest, what I really want is pique your interest… to get you into traditional wet shaving.
