    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #331 Boar
    Enders Speed Shaver
    Enders Speed Blade
    CWR
    Pinaud Vanilla

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #331 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Shaver razor with an Enders Speed Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Wednesday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Gentleman
    Soap: Stirling Gentleman
    Razor: Vintage Gillette NEW Short Comb
    Blade: Gillette “7 O’Clock Blue” Super Platinum (2)
    Brush: Elite Razor/WSP Silvertip-24mmx50mm
    Aftershave: Stirling Gentleman w/Menthol

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    Stirling Gentleman today. 20 seconds to load the Elite Razor/WSP Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Gillette 7-OClock Blue SP in the Gillette NEW SC. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Gentleman aftershave.

    8499A994-D797-43F4-BF75-32F83EF9D234.jpeg My midweek shave:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Wilkinson Long Handle/Rapira day 7
    Gilly’s Lush Life SS
    Prep ASB
    Max Refreshing AS Splash

    Except for the Rapira blade being kind of tuggy during the second pass I have no complaints at all about this shave. I’ll change it for tomorrow morning - perhaps for a Minora. The Lush Life soap lathered beautifully, I enjoyed its lovely scent as well as its menthol effect, and it left me with an excellent postshave feeling. I can’t say enough good things about the Prep because it works so well as a balm and this Max Refreshing aftershave from Bulgaria not only smells great, it’s loaded with menthol. Smooth as a glass table top!

    Whenever I shave with this software combo, I wonder why I even try other soaps, creams and splashes. It just "clicks" every time.

    Sweet razor. Fairly aggressive I've read? Maybe I'll get to try one sometime.

    Thanks, Josh.
    It has a lot of blade feel and a lot of audio feedback. Only my seventh shave with it and they've all been great!

    Greeeeaaaat, now you're getting me thinking about casually watching out for one . That's all my wife needs to see is another razor being delivered... Between my growing collection of vintage and modern razors <despite trading and giving some away> she already doesn't understand the obsession or why I rotate razors and enjoy it so much. TBH, I could have a much more expensive or obscure hobby.

    I like automatic watches too but I don't go crazy at all on them - now that's a hole to be careful of tiptoeing into . Today is the blue matte Squale 1521.

    Ranger Tech and Senator/Bic (2). With good prep I did surprisingly well with these. Not bad head shavers at all with a sharp Bic, slight preference for the Senator. IMG_20190417_083347-01.jpg
