Sunday's


Dove Men Face Wash
TOBS Grapefruit
Jayaruh #61
Schick M Adjustable
Schick Injector Twin
CWR, Asma Alum Block
T.N. Dickinson's WH
Mennen Skin Bracer

The TOBS Grapefruit Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #61 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable razor with a Schick Stainless Twin Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Mennen Skin Bracer After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thanks! They are wonderful razors, this one has been replated, yours looks original if I remember right.

 

Bill,
I'm sorry that you are having so much trouble with the tremors. I pray that they get better soon.
I look forward to your posts every day and enjoy the newspapers.
Thank you!

 

Saturday

Wonderful shave this morning with a $5 razor. The DeFitch double edge razor. Has a nice heft to it and the blade had no alignment issues like the previous DeFitch model.

Razor: DeFitch
Blade: Kroger branded Israel (4)
Brush: Shave Revolution Synthetic
Lather: TOBS Grapefruit
Post: witch hazel, then some Razorock Amici
Haven't used the TOBS Grapefruit in a while, I'm very glad I did. Easy thick and slick lather with a great scent. The DeFitch is a very mild razor, even more so than the PreWar Tech in my den. None the less, with a simple 2 pass shave (XTG, ATG, but not on the neck) I ended in a very nice BBS shave. It is 5 o'clock now and the face is still very smooth (I shaved at 6:30 am). I'm glad the shave was so mild though, yesterday I tried the GEM pushbutton, and it being so light I used too much pressure and pretty much destroyed my neck, but feels much better now. Have a great day folks!

 

Nothing like a good rebound shave, huh.

 

back to Kaline, @Tdmsu, can you confirm that there is a street either in Lakeland, FL(their spring training town)or Detroit, called "Al Kaline Drive". I love how the "line drive" gets mixed in with his name and the street.

 

Not to but in, but

Its over by lakeland hills blvd, by tigertown., 25 mins from here

 

Hey, neat! Well deserved for #6

 

Good ones!!!

 

Tonight's shave was amazing. First time with Mystic waters, I wasn't sure at first of its like it but I'm sure with a little more work I will love it.

Fellowship of cold water shavers

 

Exactly! It was a much needed quality shave

 

when I end up missing the same area, I kill it with Rise. It's my rebound, or I could also call it my "offensive glass" save.

 

Great photo.

 

Rise shave cream?

 

which leads me to ask, there is such a thing as a DEFENSIVE glass in basketball, right????

 

yes, or what now is called "Super Foam".

 

I have not tried it

 

Well it is not MY house but I wish it was. Looks like a store front!
