I am having arthroscopic surgery on my right shoulder Friday afternoon. I am wondering how that will impact my morning shaves starting Saturday. Stay tuned.
Thanks, Herm. I'm not left-handed, but I may become a convert after tomorrow. Today's shave was with my Gillette Rocket Aristocrat Jr., Made in England. Also, it was my first shave with the Jayaruh #139 silvertip badger. It turns out, it is a very nice brush.
had surgery on my rt shoulder this am but not before getting in one more shave with english aristocrat jr
That's good news Jim. I've been using my Gillette razors between straight razor shaves and I've discovered that I really like those Gillettes. Sure, injectors are great and I really like those Gem razors. Too many razors and not enough shaves! Anyway, using a different Gillette every day, I realize that they were definitely mainstream, but they had enough variety to keep every shaver happy. My Gillettes are darn fine shavers!
Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Slim H2 with a Personna Super blade (19) gave me a close, comfortable shave.
Monday's shave. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Travel Tech H2 with a Personna Super blade gave me a close, comfortable shave.
Tuesday's shave. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Travel Tech J4 with a Personna Super blade gave me a close, comfortable shave.
I have 24 Gillette DE razors. By the 24th, I will have used each one of them one time. Then, I will be picking some favorites to finish off the month. These will get me through the 28th. Here is my line up for the fourth week of DEcember Gillette DE month (December 22-28). Three shaves after this group will finish off the year.
