For my first April shave in this Throwback Week, I'll do a back 9 of:

prep-Dial 4 Men Bodywash((Advanced Hydration)in shower
shave-Central Texas Soaps' (Grandpa's Barbershop)*
brush-Crown King(Duro Spindle Tali)**
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE
A.S. Clubman Original Scent(12.5 oz)***

*-it appears to me that any product with the word "Grandpa" in it should take you way back in time.
**-this is a corrrecction from yesterday when I used Stoylin "li'l brudder"....
***-1810.. Pinaud created his masterpiece perfumery work in 1830, but were he not born to begin with, he couldn't have done it 20 years later.

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Col. Conk Amber Shave Soap
Jayaruh #424
Gillette Fatboy G2
Nacet Stainless
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Col. Conk Amber Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #424 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Fatboy G2 with a Nacet Stainless Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Today would have been my Dad's birthday. He would have been 108. He made it to 83 and had a good life.

SE SOTD, Fri, April 1st 2022

Razor : Valet auto-strop, C1 Canadian variant- Mfg 1920's, I modified gap from 11/1000 to 7/1000 inch & this made a huge difference in comfort of the shave, precious owner changed this I figure and neglected the razor. Works like a charm.
Blade :Gem Personna SS PTFE (4) very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable.
Soap :Razorock WTP Orange- nice orange citrus scent mid strength + excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Razorock 24mm Noir 400 synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, great scrub + great lather painter.
Pre shave : Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2.
Post shave: Razorock Amici with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless)
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my C1 Valet Auto strop with modified a coated Gem blade


Have some great shaves!

Thank you, gentlemen!

Believe it or not, I do not recall having any pranks played on me. I remember way back even in elementary school I would be voted athlete of the year every yearso they must have thought if they played a prank on me I would kick their ass so they didn't try to prank me.
