    I am not sure about Calgary, but feel it has probably suffered as Edmonton has with the strict health codes and extra permits and licensing required, not a single shop offers it anymore up here.

    Ive seen the service on several salons/spa's 'available services menu'. But its usually in the ballpark of $100 for a shave.

    Id really like to get it done too, but not for $100.

    Give Tod Sweeney a ring! Nice rates, private location, hote receptionist, what more could you ask for?

    Ive heard if you're lucky, he might even sing you a jingle or two while using his services.

    I think the barber shop in Gulf Canada Square does straight blade shaves.

    Alberta Barbershop on 14th street does a straight blade shave. Not sure if its the type your looking for though cause they only charge 10 as opposed to 100 so im assuming a hot shave is different.

    There's an old school barber shop right beside Belgo. Last I recall it was about $10 for a hot towel straight blade.
