    Just the Basics June

    Wednesday's Shave

    The Williams Wednesday shave got the job done today with no problems. Two passes for a DFS and no irritation. I bought this razor because it was the first issue of the Gillette Flare Tip razors. Easy, no fuss, mild shaver.

    1954 Gillette Flare Tip (Z1)
    Gillette Silver Blue (2)
    WCS Beacon Synthetic
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Florida Water Cologne

    I placed a PAA order myself this past weekend. Mine hasn't shipped yet either but they did create a mailing label yesterday.
    Very nice, Andrew!

    Ariana & Evans Shave Soap & After Shave Splash Food - Vanille de Tabac
    Symmetrical Pottery Dottie Bowl - Cobalt Blue
    Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic - Royal Pearl
    J3Customs Kamisori

    Had this Tobacco Tuesday all lined up....but yesterday ended up being a no shave day, a side effect of too much work....oh well, happens.

    Incredible 3 pass shave today on 48 hours of growth. WTG, XTG, XTG (opposite X leg). This J3Customs Kamisori shaves mostly silent, barely a muted 'metal scrub' while going about business. BBS results with a small neck weeper (no distraction at all, stopped before clean up). Very fun bowl overflowing dense lather, slightly off white in color, super face feel with tons of cushion. Finished with a healthy smattering of the matching A&E after shave splash food.

    Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!

    I placed another order for the Ascension Twist OC Aluminum last night. With luck I should have a lot of stuff arriving next week.

    Good morning guys!

    Straight Razor Shave # 178
    Mad Max 10/8 Half Hollow BN Pt
    Catie's Bubbles Tuxedo Brush
    Music City Suds Lavender SS and AS

    Today was the first time that I used Catie's Tuxedo brush. It really has a nice backbone and did a fine job creating lather. I just love Music City Suds' lavender and I am glad that I have another tub of it because they don't make SS anymore. This is my 4th shave with the Mad Max and quite honestly, I finally feel comfortable using this razor. I am at the point(pun unintended) where it just comes naturally to me. She really is a very fine shaver. Did 2.5 passes on a 48 hr growth to give me a wound-free and irritation-free BBS minus shave. Splashed on the wonderful matching aftershave and I smell great and look clean and refreshed. Have a nice day guys! 20200610_100703.jpg 20200610_100703.jpg
