Gillette New Long Comb Razor Personna Lab Blue Blade Barbershop Boar Brush (modified) Love My Skin Tobacco & Bay Leaf Soap Dickinson's Witch Hazel Tabac After Shave Another great shave with this razor. Two passes with just a hint of touch up for an excellent and smooth BBS shave.
I was just about to ask what you thought of it. Seen a few around but never picked one up. How would you compare it to a SS Flare? That is if you have one. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
Yeah, have a bunch of Super Speeds and they do shave great also. I personally use Lab Blues or Israeli Personna Stainless blades with them. Sharp blades work great on Super Speeds. The New Long Comb is a bit more aggressive, but with the right blade, I get pretty smooth and comfortable shaves with it. It's a perfect razor, for me anyway, for getting BBS shaves with only two passes with a bit of touch up.
Wednesday's planned shave: Nivea Facial Wash Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed Astra day 3 Stirling Sharp Dressed Man SS Lubriderm Unscented Moisturizer English Leather AS Splash Gonna have a great time tomorrow morning!
You are correct, it is still a great aftershave. Thanks for posting the vintage bottle. Sent from my STV100-3 using Tapatalk
