DE SOTD, Sat, April 23 2022


Razor : Razorock Wunderbar slant- Mfg 2017> excellent upper mid range, machining of the head is perfect, you should shave with a steep approach because of very curved head, I like to use. I get great close shaves with this razor+ experimenting with a 75mm handle(3 inch)length today with very excellent results .
Blade : Gillette 7oClock super platinum(1) excellent blade, sharp & smoooth on first use, one of my favorites.
Soap : Yaqi Green, a new soap formulated by Master soap creations South Africa for Yaqi, nice mild citrus wood scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi 24mm dandelion synthetic, excellent lather creator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle scrub + excellent painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Yaqi Green AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless),
Results :CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my RR Wunderbar slant with a Gillette 7oClock SP.


Have some great shaves!

Well, I will be finishing up Tom White Week on Sunday. It has been a great week shaving with Tom's creations. Monday, I will start Tom White Week, v.3D. Yep, I will be using Tom's creations in the 3D Printed Department. The lineup looks like this:

Monday: TNNSER 3D
Tuesday: Wabbit 3D
Wednesday: TiBr Wabbit 3D
Thursday: TNNSER 3D
Friday: Wabbit 3D
Saturday: TiBr Wabbit 3D
Sunday: Fuzzy Catcher 3D

 

The Superspeeds to this day are as good as any razor. It's a testament to the engineers who made that design. The razor even changes blades and cleans up with ease and doesn't ever clog up. It's literally the perfect razor.

The Enders is a great shaver! A useful blade hack is to file down the edge on an old blade and use it as a shim to hold a Schick B-20 Proline injector blade in place. Hendrix Classics also sells an adapter that used the Schick Proline-B20 blade.

Shaving recipe for today.

Prep: Warm shower:/Asda Sea Salt & Fennel Extract 2 in1 Shower Gel.

Pre:
Cold wet flannel to my face.
Chantry Lavender Goat's Milk Bar Soap.
Brush: Omega 10077.
Face Lather.
Lather: Razorock "What The Puck? !"Lime Burst Shaving soap.
Blade: Feather Hi Stainless. (D2)
Razor: Muhle R89.

Post:
Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse./ Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Cien Aqua ASL./Aloe Vera Gel./Milton Lloyd Essentials No9 EdP.

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

Another excellent smooth performance from the Feather Hi Stainless...My judgement & opinion of them on my second week of focus using them has went from being very undecided about them, to thinking they are an outstandingly smooth efficient blade...

I have mentioned before if i had to have only one DE Razor the Muhle R89 would be a very strong contender...I will always have a soft spot for the Muhle r89 & Merkur 34c as both razors helped me to develop my technique and gain my shaving confidence when i first started out. For that reason alone i will never part with either razor.

An enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups comfortable shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Essentials No9 EdP to the chest & pulse points.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling divine.

Stay Safe, and enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.

Sunday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Junjie/Shark day 12
Lyko SC
Intesa ASB
Razorock Don Donato AS Splash

This Junjie razor might be dirt cheap but let me say this - it performs so efficiently especially with a good blade like a Shark in it. I also love this Yaqi 30mm synthetic brush so much - not only is it beautiful looking, it’s also one hell of a lather maker. The Lyko cream is from India and it has a nice minty/aquatic scent, you just need a small dab on both cheeks to get thick, rich, slick lather, there’s a mild but very pleasant menthol sensation, and it’s really skin friendly. The Intesa balm from Italy is nicely scented, it gives a lot of moisturizing and soothing as well as some cooling, and the Don Donato aftershave has a similar scent to the Lyko cream so it pairs well with it and it’s fairly mentholated. Two passes were enough to earn me a great BBS shave that I really enjoyed!

Have a good Sunday - be well and safe!
