    Back to the MWF

    1 Days growth

    Liked the Oud so much yesterday I did a repeat shave except for adding some MWF for a super lather

    Face lathering: 20 swirls on the MWF, 20 from the TOBS tub and straight over the Palmolive used as a Preshave
    Adding water till it was super shiny
    Super slick once again
    The Henckels and Red Tip did great again
    Super 2 pass easy shave
    Bit of Arabian Sunset Oud to the pulse points: all set for the day

    Have a great Sunday everyone

    Can't believe it's nearly the end of March

    Did 3 passes for a BBS result. Caught a tiny weep on the lip. Yeah, I know not to shave there. Lol! Alum did wonders to take care of it. Otherwise, no alum feedback. Splashed on the aftershave. Will do a headshave for the last shave of the month. Take care.

    Real good shave this morning(Sun). The Gillette Foamy squeezed out in normal fashion. Clean&clear all over. Zero damage. I think due to the strength of the Harry's Bodywash(Sandalwood&Cypress)I need to disttribute more A.S. for the A.S. smell, so I worked with a little more Bill Neumann ( Signature 1907) than usual. Worked out fine. As Outstanding As It Gets.

    March 31 Head and Faceshave

    Good morning.

    1955 Gillette RedTip
    Gillette 7 o'clock Super Platinum DE Blade (fresh, 2)
    Hembree-Maggard Timberwolf Synthetic Brush
    TSD Barbershoppe SS and AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Beard Growth: 22.5 hrs
    Dome Turf: 3 days

    20250330_121600.jpg

    I decided to celebrate the end of the month with a head and face shave. I was inspired by @ChrisB and picked my RedTip to perform the shaves. Finally, I Edmund Fitzgerald The Shave Den Barbershoppe soap. It really took a long time to finish it and now, I can use my other soaps. Btw, I only have TSD Orange remaining in my den so I won't begin to use it until the weather warms up.
    Anyway 3 passes on the dome gave me a smooth comfortable shave, bit got a nick on the back of it. The blade was so smooth that it felt like I wasn't cutting the hairs and I guess that I put a little more pressure on the razor than necessary. I only needed 2 passes on my face to give me a smooth and comfortable shave, but no bloodshed was evident. There was negligible Alum feedback all around. Gave myself a double portion of the matching aftershave. Take care.
