Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Sales/trades should be handled in r/shave_bazaar or official trading threads; recurring SOTD and Lather Games threads drive visibility.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, discussion, data
Write a descriptive, specific headline (use tags like [PIF], Meetup, or Lather Games). Post in first person or community voice; include details, links, and calls-to-action. Typical length: medium to long (detailed event/giveaway/challenge posts). Tone: casual, enthusiastic, community-focused. Upvoted: meetups, giveaways, challenge/results, charity, detailed SOTD logs; overt sales likely belong in bazaar/trading threads and may be removed.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/wetshaving's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
