SRS # 1229 - 1508.5 Project - WTF Vintage Barbershop

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: Frederick Reynolds 5/8”
Brush: Semogue Hereditas - Boar
Pre-Shave: Pears Transparent Soap
Lather: WTF Vintage Barbershop
Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman
Additional Care:
Omega Alum
Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

A very refreshing and relaxing Saturday morning shave. I decided to switch out the WTF aftershave to the Pinaud Clubman for a nice change of pace. I will use the Semogue boar brush for the next few shaves to assist in the breaking in process. The brush may wind up in the Southern den just so I have a variety of boars to choose from when I am there.

Again, my usual three passes did not leave me wanting for a better shave. Everything is just dialed in at this point although I am aware that remaining focused is the key factor.

Lather shot:


Now I am off to do some chores. The missus has been sidelined with COVID. It does not appear to be a bad case, more like a good cold.

Upon my return from the chores I plan on taking Anthony to the gym for his workout.

Have a great Saturday gentlemen.

 

Not as good a shave this morning as the other two Bill Neumann/Razorock shaves. Why. Two rough Knicks at Cactus Nation(neck)spoiled an otherwise nice shave. Why do I say rough. They didn't produce any dark red matter, but they easily could have. Strong and good work everywhere else. 2 passes. I was especially pleaed with my efforts at both ends of Porcupine Nation. That's been going good lately. The Neumann A.S. "softened the blow" of the Knicks, but not too much. Very Outstanding.

 

Terrific shave and gear Joe. Hope the Mrs. recovers quickly. Enjoy your time with Anthony.

 

absolutely fabulous gents.

January 27 SOTA

Good afternoon.

Schick I-1 Injector Razor
Pella SE Blade (8)
MrEE Tuxedo Brush
Cella SS
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS
Stirling Alum Block
Modessa Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 24.5 hrs



I am planning on seeing my favorite Christian band this evening so I want to make sure that I have an excellent shave.
I picked up my Schick I-1 and decided to use Cella for this mission.
I loaded my brush directly from the puck and facelathered. I did use a lot of water because I like Cella when the lather is thin. I find it's much more slicker than the Santa Claus Beard type lather.

Did 3 exemplary passes that gave me a BBS result that would be just shy of passing the cotton ball test. The alum feedback was only on my neck area0, but it was not uncomfortable.
Applied the Modessa Witch Hazel and followed with the Aqua Velva Ice Blue aftershave. I am pleased with this session. Take care.

 

Wonderful Clubman shave Joe! I hope your wife feels better soon..

 

Wonderful shave and pictures Gary!

 

Thank you Joe. It was definitely superb….
