The shaving community is rallying to make a donation for Double Y's/Ygor's family.

We are heartbroken to share the news of the passing of Ygor, a much-loved member of our community. Ygor was known for his kindness, warmth, and generosity, and his loss is deeply felt by all of us.

In this difficult time, we want to come together to support Ygor's family as they navigate through their grief and unexpected challenges. Your donations will help ease the financial burden and provide much-needed support for the family in the days ahead.

Let’s honour Ygor's memory by showing the same compassion and love that they shared with us. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a difference and will mean so much to the family.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this time.

Dave & André.
