    Having shaved only about fifteen hours ago I was contemplating which mild razor to use, then it occurred to me that I'd never used the Gibbs on setting one.
    Good call.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Saturday Straights' Shave

    Cold Water Wash
    PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #220
    J.A. Henckels 5/8
    CWR
    PSC Caffeinated AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 brush. I did two passes with the J.A. Henckels 5/8 razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  9. Thanks Tim. I brought tried and true gear - except for the razor. I figured the week here would make me get used to it's little nuances. Plus, It's a good thing we have His and Hers vanities here... You should see my wife's stuff lol .

  18. Accents are all part of the rich tapestry of life. Unfortunately, I think, we're hurtling towards an homogenised, robotic English.
