Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Proraso Pre Shave
Tabac
Jayaruh #266
Supply Provision
Personna Injector
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Vegetal

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #266 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Supply Provision Injector Razor using a Personna Injector blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Razor: PAL Adjustable Injector
Blade: Chick (1)
Brush: VdH Boar
Soap: Williams
Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

Today was my first shave with a PAL Adjustable Injector courtesy of @billdog2's recent PIF. I've heard a lot of good things about this razor and am really happy to finally have one of my own. For this first shave, I took a conservative approach, using a Chinese Schick, rather than a Proline, and a setting just above 'L'.

The shave was very pleasant overall and two passes brought home a BBS or close enough.

Comparing the PAL to the Schick Adjustable is an interesting exercise as the two take somewhat different approaches to adjustability. The PAL adjusts by moving the safety bar in and out while the Schick adjusts by moving the safety bar up and down. The way the PAL works reminds me of my experiences with the Schick E2 and G1. At a setting of 'L' (for light beards), the PAL moves the bar to its furthest point from the blade; the dimensions remind me of the E2 which is one of my favorite Injectors. As the knob is moved towards 'H' (for heavy beards), the PAL retracts the safety bar, giving a more blade-forward profile. This reminds me of the dimensions of the G1 which many people love but which is not one of my favorites. I tend to have a light beard so this actually all makes sense to me.

Cremo lathering. Pretty cool.

 

It actually lathers.

 

Then it would be worth trying. I don't like the non-lathering Cremo. Piffed both.

They don't stock the Cremo Cream in a tub at my Walmart, just the tubes. Plus all the beard balm and wash stuff. The stuff in the tubes makes a great preshave, or superlather when mixed with a shaving soap. It really likes Williams.

They sell the Cremo tub at Target.

That is correct. I bought the Cremo tub at Target several months ago. I rarely go there so I don't know if they still have it.

 

7 is the best number. I think that is indeed a M1.

Sigh.........

I actually pulled the pin on Williams Wednesday. I blame it on a Dr. Appointment that left me with little sleep. A early E2 did a great job along with a bayrum from The Copper Hat. Still loving the TOST LE. This razor is up in a PIF across the street. Veddy nice shave.
