Schick G8 razor Personna blade Cade SS RazoRock Plissoft brush Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Colorado Sage cologne. Gotta be more careful with injectors. They are so easy to use that, sometimes, I get carried away and get a little sloppy with my technique. Good close shave tho and I'm ready to go. Now go enjoy your day folks
TUESDAY This morning's shave included another vintage George Wostenholm & Son razor, a 6/8" round-point 'Celebrated Pipe' razor with original bone scales. This Wosty is particular user-friendly as it is lightweight, a jimped thumb notch, and a round point. I find round-points the easiest straight razors to use and always recommend them for beginners to SR shaving. TGN synthetic brush and mentholated Stirling soap. Wm Neumann & Co. "Heartwood" balm finish. Excellent shave! Have a great Toozday, all!
SOTD: Tuesday, March 8 Vintage Williams CH2 Synthetic '55 A1 Gillette Red Tip Polsilver SI (2) Vintage Old Spice Musk AS So many beautiful Red Tips being used today, I was inspired to use mine as well. What a great razor!! The mentholated Williams is too darn cold It's hard to see what you're doing when your eyes are filled with tears. The Polsilvers are one of my favorites. Smooth and sharp. I finished up with OS Musk. Don't really like the bottle, but I do like what's inside. Have a great day!
