    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Red and Black Badger by Tom
    Red and Black OT by T. White
    Pro 500 Super Platinum

    Cella After Shave Balm

    The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with the Red and Black Badger Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Red and Black OT by T. White and a Pro 500 Super Platinum Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    I decided to ring in the New Year with another DE Shave. Don't worry. I will be doing a couple of straight shaves this week. Lol! I have to say that I consider this razor a mild to standard aggressive one. Personally, using this razor is like a walk in the park. Anyway, I went with the Captain's Choice North set for this session. I like the jasmine scent, but it is on the mild side of the spectrum. It's too bad that it was discontinued a few years ago. Captain's Choice needs plenty of water to get that smooth, creamy lather. Here's my lather:

    Did three passes for a nice, comfortable and error-free BBS shave. I had enough lather for at least 5 passes, but did a 4th non-shaving pass because I like the scent and I don't like to waste lather. I really didn't need a lot of soap to get this amount of lather.
    Anyway, I did get more than mild feedback on the neck. Splashed on the witch hazel and then the matching aftershave. This was a very nice shave. Take care.
