    Proraso After shave balm

    DFS tonight with the 2nd shave on a Nacet. I do like them a lot. Still struggling to order blades - all the ones I've tried so far are good quality.

    '48-'50 Gillette Aristocrat Razor
    Personna Lab Blue Blade
    Erskine K-250 Badger Brush
    Vintage Klar Shave Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva Musk After Shave

    Today's shave is what I would call fantastic as it was a great two pass BBS shave with just two strokes for touch up. It was a very smooth and comfortable shave.

    Planned Shower for Veterans Day:

    Bodywash-Nivea 4 Men (Energy)
    Shampoo-Suave 4 Men(Heritage Edition, "New Since 1937)*
    Deodorant Soap-Dial 4 Men**
    Deodorant(post-shave)-Speedstick GEAR(by Mennen)

    *    Suave works at blending vintage with modern. Nice concept.
    **-running low on this, a return to Coast might be in the cards(which isn't so bad, but I prefer using something that is "4 Men".)

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Musgo Real
    Jayaruh #220
    Russian Rocket Raketa Straight
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva

    I started off with a prayer of thanksgiving for all those who have served in our armed forces. All gave some, some gave all. May God bless them all.

    Next, I applied some Proraso Pre Shave. The Musgo Real Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Russian Rocket Raketa Straight and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    SOTD 11.10.2017
    Pre-shave: hot shower
    Shave Cream: Barbasol Sensitive Skin travel size can http://theshaveden.com/forums/threa...el-can-experiment-sensitive-skin.57755/page-2
    Razor: Ming Shi 2000s aka Futur Clone
    Blade: Wilkinson-Sword (1)
    Post-shave: Thayer's WH, Nivea PS Balm, Skin Bracer

    Again, I'm only doing head shaves this month. I received this razor in the mail a week ago today, and my original intent was to wait to use when I start on face shaves again. I couldn't wait.... but, I should've waited. Brand new-razor-to-me and trying to do head shaves wasn't the greatest idea. I had trouble finding the right angle to cut the hair, especially shaving the back of my head. I started out with the setting at 1/2. Then I moved it to 1. Then I moved it to 3. I just went slow and carefully and ultimately got a DFS without any injuries. I knew better. I've never shaved my head with a razor without first getting comfortable with in on face shaves. I really like the razor. I think it will be a favorite of mine, but the weight and design and figuring out the correct adjustment is different from what I'm used to and I should've been patient. Live and learn.

    I hope everyone has a great weekend!
