thank you. I dont use straights every day but just decided to today... no nicks/ weepers. Was quite nice...
Schick C2 Razor Personna PTFE Blade Semogue Excelsior Boar Brush Sudsy Soapery Citrus & Bay Soap Dickinson's Witch Hazel w/Orange Pinaud Virgin Island Bay Rum After Shave I purposely didn't shave for a while because I've heard these very early Schick razors are pretty aggressive. So I decided to do a midnight shave, as on Saturdays I can get kinda lazy. It took a bit to get used to the different angle, and I took my time, but when I did, all I can say is nice. Yes it is aggressive, but no weepers and just the normal sting I get after using after shave. I did my usual two passes, but didn't lather up for any touch up. I just felt along my face and only noticed one area on my neck that needed a bit of attention. So I just made sure my face was wet and went at it with a couple of strokes. I ended up with a very smooth and pretty comfortable BBS shave.

2019-08-17, Saturday In bad need of a high tallow rate soap I used Kimbo, but lathering with something smelling coffee is not my poison. Maybe because I imagine I should drink something tasting like Eau de Cologne... Sapone PS: Valobra Glicerolanolina Sapone: I Saponi di Drughet, Kimbo Pennello: Lab.

Saturday Straights' Shave Cold Water Rinse Arko Shaving Soap Jayaruh #376 Kamisori shavette Feather Professional CWR Aqua Velva Ice Blue My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Arko Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #376 Brush. I did two passes with the Kamisori shavette razor with a Feather Professional Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Saturday morning: Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Shark day 6 Arko Shaving Stick Prep ASB Pe Re Ja Lemon Cologne I had lather flying all over the bathroom as well as enough for three guys to shave with from twenty five seconds of rubbing the Arko stick along my face and neck along with that famous clean, soapy scent which I love so much. The Shark blade seems to have lost some of its sharpness but it still performed great. The Prep took perfect care of my postshave needs and the Pe Re Ja cologne, which is also from Turkey was an ideal finish - it has a lovely lemony scent and it works very well as an aftershave. A super duper three pass BBS shave!
