OCtober 21st Razor: Gem MMOC Blade: Personna PTFE (3) Brush: Yaqi High Mountain White Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat PAA Galactic witch hazel PAA unscented Star Jelly AS: Aqua Velva Ice Blue MWF on MWF OCtober Good morning! Wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Light tickle from the alum. Went back to the 30 second load time with the Fat and was rewarded with a rich, slick lather. Have a great day!
Very nice Patrick. Cool razor stand. Love the OS shave Rick. I hope the kids feel better soon. Excellent bay rum shave Terry. Great photo Jim. Love the brush.
Good morning gents I had to try the Rocket today, with a once used Derby blade. I used Haslinger aloe soap, which is a good performer, but i think i didn't add enough water, had to add more for the second pass. I'm so used to the Proraso, that lather without menthol feels just wrong. But yeah. I got a little bit of razor burn on my moustache area, i lost my concentration a bit there. Other parts of my face were completely fine. Have a nice day!
Nice shave, Daniel! I have had to add more soap to my brush or rewet a drying soap during a shave. It's not the end of the world. What matters is that you get a close comfortable shave.
Wonderful shave Daniel. You were able to correct the lather and know what caused the razor burn. You're getting there.
Thank you, Jim! Thanks, Clint! The lather was slightly on the thinner side on the second pass, but very slick. I think that i'll be going back to my Proraso though, i'm addicted to the menthol.
Thank you Joe. I haven't really found anything in these parts Gary. Drug stores carry lots of stuff but nothing Canadian. I almost ordered the H&V but ended up buying a razor that evening instead . I do enjoy my Rockwell Barbershop AS balm. Its a nice strong scent. Thank you Gary. Thank you Jason. Kinda glad I didnt bin that piece now that I look at it . Thank you Jim. Thank you Clint. Thank you Daniel.
