    SOTD 3/4/16
    Sorry I've been gone for a day or two, been crazy with midterms.
    Prep: Hot Shower/ Eco Pure Man Face Scrub
    Pre-Shave: Proraso White
    Soap: Proraso Red Sandalwood
    Brush: Omega Boar
    Razor/ Blade: Merkur 37c Slant/ Personna Lab Blue (3)
    Astringent: Witch Hazel
    Post-Shave: SC Integrity Balm
    Aftershave: Captain's Choice Sandalwood
    Great shave last night. I didn't love the Proraso Red the first time I used it, but I didn't load up quite enough soap. Loaded up lots today and it worked great. The lather was pretty thick but very slick and post shave was good due to the Shea Butter. I still love this Omega, just don't like the cheap plastic handle. Love the 37c Slant as well, one of the most efficient but smoothest razors. Have a great Saturday!

    It was a good shave. I did get a few weepers.No cuts this time. I used the 195 on the 5 setting. I liked it.

    Haven't used the 37c yet but I am a fan of Merkur Razors! I have the Futur and love it. I posted a review of it and several others razors on my youtube page if you care to see.

    Happy Shaving! ! !

    I was about to give up on the feather blades. The just don't line up straight in my Merkur. They lined up just fine in the 195. I may come to like the feathers.

    They have always worked great for me in all my razors. They work well in the Merkur Futur.

    I've also been considering the 39c (slant) also known as "The Sledgehammer".

    Thanks. It was in very good shape when it arrived, I rebuilt it as per Captain Murphy's video.

    @Gabe what a fantastic setup. Beautiful bloom on your brush and that bowl is lovely. :)
