March 14 SOTA

Good afternoon.
Shavette Shave #535
Dovo
Personna Hairshaper Blade (fresh)
Rockwell 6C (6)
Zorrik DE Blade (5)
MrEE LE #10 Cashmere Brush
Angora Soaps Midnight Lavender SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Beard Growth: 41.5 hrs
Dome Turf: 3 days



It was a head and face shave session.
Started with my Dovo and was able to get a super close comfortable 2 pass shave. I didn't need to go for 3 passes because a fresh Hairshaper Blade is ultra sharp that it just flat out mowed down my heavy stubble. I felt a sharp pain under my nose and chin. Nothing turned up near the nose, but got an insignificant tiny nick on my chin. Alum made the nick disappear and nothing came out from the nose area. Having a light touch does prevent problematic wounds. Lol!
I made a nice lather, but forgot to take a picture of it. Sorry guys. I am disappointed because it looked very nice and creamy. Oh well. My dome shave was a 3 pass affair with my Rockwell 6C. Everything went well.
I had minimal alum feedback on the neck and dome. Finished with the matching aftershave. Take care.

 

Love Oud shaves Chris. Well done.

 

@ChrisB. I have a few Oud software.
Stirling Agar - I really like this one. It is one the darker side . I am not sure if Stirling has discontinued this or it has become one of their seasonal products.
Wholly Kaw King of Oud - To my nose this software has a slightly sweeter scent. Very enjoyable.
Ginger’s Garden British Empire - The software is new to the den. I have used it once. I plan on using it this weekend. Very nice, not very dark. Scent profile: “Crisp citrus, exotic oud, golden amber, rich sandalwood and white musk.”
Hoffman’s Shave Company TUT - Another product new to the den. Very nice, still determining the longevity factor. Scent profile: “This is a classic scent profile but with a twist! Features a very well done Egyptian Musk blended with a Black Oud.”
Razorock Stallion - This soap was my first introduction to the Oud scent. I enjoyed it so much that it was a repurchase. Scent profile: very dark, similar to AdP Colonia.”.

thank you Joe.

 

Thanks Joe.

 

I have been wetshaving for over 5 years and learned something new. You can use an Injector Blade in any twist-to-open GEM razor. Unfortunately, it won't work with the flip-to-open top razors. I decided to check it out and my GEM MMOC does accept an Injector Blade. The only con is that you have to make sure everything is evenly seated before you close the blade. Sometimes, the blade moves as you're closing the razor. Once Closed, the razor firmly secures the blade. I am going to try shaving with this razor/blade combo.

 

Thank you Gary.
