There are couple really nice guys with good form and just nice channels if you want to check out some products.

Michael Freedberg. Grew up in The Hague but lives in North Carolina and Another Cut Above (Cris) a Scotsman in Western Australia.

And of course the single greatest wet shaver alive today: Happy2

I actually like Paul H. He doesn't even do reviews really he just shaves. That and it is awesome to see how excited he gets over something as simple as shaving.

Michael Freedberg is the only one I occasionally watch any more. He was the first one I found when I started out looking for pointers. He does a nice mix of product reviews and tips for newbies. I find him quite funny sometimes too.

You mean Beautiful Michael Freedberg from North of South Carolina ? Big Grin

I am a regular viewer of Freedberg, Caleb, Mantic59 and sometimes PaulH. I do watch some other straight razor shaving every now and then though.

Freedberg is about the only one I watch anymore. He was the first YouTuber I watched and I learned how to lather from his tutorials back when I started.

Yes, there are folks on YouTube who give shaving related advice that isn't correct. This isn't a YouTube phenomenon. It's a human phenomenon. Of course, there is great content on classic shaving as well.

The folks posting incorrect info aren't doing so to make money - they think they have correct knowledge, which isn't the case. People have thought they know more than they do since the beginning of humankind and will be doing so until the end of humankind.

We have all shared incorrect info, thus giving folks a pass and getting a pass is my view.

This guy is a hard-core and a minimalist. I love his shaving mug/soap holder, brush and razor. Simplicity at its best. Big Grin

This is my favourite video of his: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGdRlm7EqLs

I think you'll find that on any video on Youtube. Everyones a critic but no one wants to make the effort to show us how its done. They just bitch and complain.
Ever since i finally figured out how to shave i haven't been watching many videos anyway. I still watch Nick Shaves, he has a somewhat kind and professional approach. And i love watching TSE run his mouth ??

I like Nick Shaves and Geofatboy because I actually learned a lot about how to shave from them. I like Freedburgs reviews a lot because they're thorough. My only complaint on TSE is that he runs his mouth (which I don't mind really) but always keeps his comments disabled so no one can disagree. I'm not a fan of that at all.

Maybe 20, 25 years ago, you could go to the nicest restaurant in town, or a great museum, etc. and, in the men's room, the stalls would be covered with the most outrageous graffiti. And you'd wonder: the customers all seem so well-heeled, so genteel! How can they do this?

Now, no graffiti. Same restaurants, museums, etc.

Why?

Because these secret nutjobs all have computers and internet access. They spew their madness all over the web.

Consider, also, the mentality of someone who spends time sniping about how someone else shaves. It could be videos of people flossing, there would be complaints (She's not getting under the gum line, the idiot!" "Look how he wrapped the floss around his fingers like a tourniquet! What a moron!").

I learned lots from Lynn Abrams's videos, Geo Fatboy's vids, and Paul H's videos. I learned the invaluable two-handed fool's pass from Charky's videos. And let's not forget Mantic, the grandaddy of the wet shaving revolution.

Of course, anyone who posts a video on a public website is vulnerable to the kind of nonsense they will likely get sometimes. One of the mixed blessings of the 'net.
