A nice, on the cheap, shave

 

I will do one day of the "week on the cheap" It was actually not a bad shave at all, but I really enjoy my razors, so this just wasn't the same.



I need to pick up a cheap boar for days like today.

 

Tuesday...

Razor: Slim @6
Blade: 7 o'clock green (Permasharp) day 2
Soap: Tabac
A/S: Old Spice

Decent shave, but more tugging than I like when doing my neck on the "bullfrog" pass.

 

Good Tuesday morning...

A. Feist Lunawerk 5/8 and '51 Superspeed w/Gillette "Swede" (1)
C&E BBB
Tabac ss
Thayers Original WH w/aloe
Booster Lilac AS
Three Crowns AS milk

After a day off to heal, I was reminded how much I like the Tabac soap...had a decent WTG pass with the straight and moved on to the DE to complete the shave...aside from a couple of weepers, I am left with a BBS...

Tuesday

Merkur Futur
Derby Extra (2)
Williams Shave Soap
Thayer's WH with Aloe
Pinaud Clubman A/S

 

Gillette NDC Super Speed
Feather blade
Kent Bk4
Taylor's Lavender cream
Max Refreshing Aftershave with Menthol
SCS Lavender Milk

This is the first time I've used a Gillette razor in months. The difference in the angle compared to a Merkur surprised the heck out of me...

 

First day of shave on the cheap week



Dorco DE
Wal Mart Personna <D1>
VDH Boar
Williams Soap
Smells just like Aqua Velva.

Very passable shave need more practice with the light plastic Dorco razor. But a good shave none the less.
