  8. I don't remember. I've inhaled too much shaving soap for my brain to function.

    Thank you Gary. When a soap gets close to being finished I tend to use it more often.

    fine flare tip shave and pic Tim.i use mild razors (most gillettes) every day.and an adjustable on 9 for s,,ts and giggles once in a while for the man star..in essence the milder razors require a little more dialing in .the blade does the cutting.the razor a holder.just technique is key here..

    Thank you, Jason! PAA definitely does seem to want to keep some nostalgia alive with their products.

    I grew up in the Southern Rockies in NM, and if you had asked me 25 years ago if I would ever live in some place like Houston, I would have said no way. But as I get older, I definitely like the warmer weather.

    Razor: Feather DX Folding Pearl
    Blade: Feather AC Professional
    Brush: Razorock Plisoft Barber 24
    PS: Proraso Red
    SS & AS: Stirling Deep Blue Sea

    I face lathered the Stirling which seemed to work fine. Started with a very dry lather and had to add water to the brush. It worked. I like the Feather DX. It did feel a lot more like a SR than my other shavette. Still a little different.

    The angle was easy to maintain. Rushed mornings are the norm so I did a 2.5 pass shave only going XTG on my cheeks. Results were good but not great. I did nick my chin. Considering I was squeezing a shavette shave into my normal morning shaving window, I think I did okay.
