A little history,
Hess Hair Milk Laboratories is located in Minnesota.
They Supply hair tonic that is distributed to barbers nationwide. It has the consistancy of milk, so it’s called “Hair Milk.” They use to also supply Straight Razors under the same name. The razor was made in Solingen, Germany for Hess.
Long story short, Funny name....Great razors that are well thought of.

ReplyDeleteThey have not made any of the Hess Hair Milk products for a number of years. The one remaining Hess product is the Hess EZ Shave razor ( replaceable blades) and it is a very good seller.
On Wednesday I will be visiting with him and looking over the last of his Hess branded shaving brushes. The last of the Hess branded razors was sold a few years ago.
