    Great shave and the Lupo sounds like a winner. I must resist the urge. Take care Clint.

    Well, I know of one just about as close to me as the other one was, in the other direction. Yes, I did make a lot of buddies in the old one. But first, let's see what happens with that situation.

    Much better shave than yesterday, mainly in that I got all whiskers from the right side this time. In that, I took @Trigger 's advice and tried a different approach-went a bit ATG. . Interestingly, the tingle from the Stoylin Spice A.S. didn't last as long as from yesterday. I thought it might be longer as I used a bit more than yesterday. One weeper, smaller than yesterday's but enough to be noticed. 2 good passes. Due to the weeper, I'll have to say : Very Excellent. (one grade lower than "Most").

    Paul, I am glad that it worked for you and that you will always attack that right side in the same manner. Congrats!

    Great shave Danny! It's almost impossible to get a bad shave with the Rockwell Razors.
    Great shave,
    It's an A+ shave Clint!
    Yes, I know! I had a senior moment! Lol! That's what happens when my old brain thinks too quickly for its own good.

    Very excellent, Paul!
    I'm still trying different tweaks in my technique. I found a new shaving face to make so I can get a close shave on my chin with less buffing. An ever evolving process so far.

    Good morning guys!
    Shavette shave #141
    Dovo Shavette
    Personna Hairshaper Blade (7)
    Jayaruh Synthetic Brush #290
    Proraso Green SS and AS
    Nivea ASB
    The JR #290 whipped up a nice lather. This is a very soft synthetic brush with some backbone and its performance is very good. I was in the mood for Proraso green. It really is a wonderful soap because it is very easy to lather and it is very slick with some cushion. The scent is clean, but it doesn't linger. On a 41 hr stubble, I performed a 2 passer giving me an IBSS++. On my 1st pass, I landed on the chin apex and gave myself a tiny nick, but it stopped without use of a styptic or witchhazel application. I wanted to go under my chin, but I missed. Finished with Proraso aftershave and moisturized my face with the Nivea ASB. This was a relaxing and enjoyable shave. I am trying to keep my shaves to two passes by buffing more during the shave because I really don't need to go full BBS. Have a great day fellas! 20200226_202749.jpg 20200226_202749.jpg
