SoS July 2020.

awesome gents..

 

Sunday Schick shave, July 26th 2020

Razor: Schick adjustable M3 -Mfg 1970-72, I like using this razor to dial in my razor for first use of a new blade.
Blade: Personna SS PTFE (1) very sharp blade for the first couple of shaves.
Soap: Proraso Red Sandal wood- It is not one of my favorites but their Proraso Red sandal wood aftershave makes up for it.
Brush: Razorock Plissoft 24 mm synthetic- been using this one for some time and it creates good lather with soft tips.
Pre- shave: shower + a dollop of Aloe vera gel on beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 with pickups.
Post shave: Proraso red sandal wood with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + minor irritation + 2 small weepers = Great shave with my Schick adjustable injector M3.



Have some great shaves!

SUNDAY'S SHAVE​

Razor - Gillette Red Tip Superspeed circa 1955-1960 (Re-plated in Satin-Nickel Finish and re-painted tip in Radiant Red color by Razor Emporium.)
Blade - *Fresh Blade
Shave Brush - Ever-Ready 1960's vintage (Polished and re-knotted with a synthetic 26mm Ubersoft II knot from Envyshave by Razor Emporium.)
Shave Stand by by Desire Metal Works
Suds - Procter & Gamble Old Spice "Original" Cream (Made in India) *I dried it out for months into a hard soap.
Aftershave - Procter & Gamble Old Spice "Classic" *Pre-2016 scent change. (Likely made between 2010 and 2015.)
Deodorant - Procter & Gamble Old Spice "Classic"
Fragrance - Procter & Gamble Old Spice "Classic" *Pre-2016 scent change. (Likely made between 2010 and 2015.)

The shave was unplanned. I planned to skip shaving today, but then around noon decided to go for an Old Spice shave after my shower after sleeping in. The shave was 2 passes + clean up. A bit of a BBS chase. Caused a bit of irritation. The splash stung but that's the point of this type of shave. I didn't get any cuts or weepers, but definitely was pushing things in regards to irritation. This is one of my go-to shaves when I don't want to decide on anything and it's a lazy Sunday. Old Spice is always there to make things right.
