    WSP Rustic Mahogany today. 20 seconds to load Knotsinyourhead/Whipped Dog Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus still in the Gillette NEW Short Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with YSL M7 Oud Absolu EdT.

    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Morning TOST
    TOST LE
    TNNSER 3D
    Gem CS SE
    CWR
    Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm

    Up early this morning. The wife has an early doctor appointment. My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Morning TOST Shave Soap face lathered well with the TOST LE Brush. I did just one pass and touch ups with the TNNSER 3D razor with a Gem CS SE Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Close But Uncomfortable
    I used the Maggard slant head on my Rockwell 2c handle and it was a close shave, and comfortable for the first pass. After that, it got a bit harsh and I got several weepers. Perhaps my technique is rusty for slants right now.

    Rating: 3.5 / 5

    Razor: Maggard/Rockwell Slant/Chrome handle
    Blade: Rapira Super Stainless
    Brush: Lutin Chubby Lightning
    Pre-Shave: PAA Cube 2.0 Menthol
    Lather: B&M Vespers
    Aftershave: B&M Vespers
    Additional Care:
    PAA Mysterium Serum Menthol

    118F24BC-874B-48E2-ACC9-23CD9FC650F2.jpeg Thursday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 5
    Gold Dachs Spezial SS
    Prep ASB
    Booster Mosswood AS Splash

    This Gold Dachs Spezial is one of the most elegant (and expensive) soaps I have - it comes from Germany and there’s only one store here in Montreal that carries it occasionally. It’s got a really beautiful old school scent with fabulous lather which whips up so easily and it’s very skin friendly. I enjoyed the massage with the Prep as well as the delightful barbershop scent of the Booster Mosswood aftershave. Three passes delivered a super smooth result!

    Thank you.
    We have a large skateboard park under an overpass in the city that is full of ever-changing graffiti art. I really enjoy taking photos there as I never know what I will find when I arrive and the colours and art can be quite beautiful. :)
