Razor: Portland Razor Co. Chimera/Supply Provision Custom 3 dot head Blade: Chick Brush: That Darn Rob silvertip Soap: B&M Hallows Post Care: Thayers Witch Hazel Alum Aftershave: B&M Hallows Another couple of firsts tonight; first try of the Hallows and Chimera. First, the Hallows, something drew me towards using this soap tonight, maybe it was a sense of dread. I don't care what it was, I love this scent. Very dark, I got a lot of chocolate of the soap and a little dark Vetiver. The aftershave is slightly different, I'm getting a predominately wet forest scent with some more Vetiver thrown in. Awesome! Speaking of awesome, the Chimera was a pleasure to use, awkward, but still a pleasure. Since I can count on one hand my number of straight shaves I stuck with only using it for the sides of my face and neck. It's loud, balanced and easy to maneuver. I only did WTG passes but I did 3 then cleaned up everything with the Supply. Not BBS but close and zero blood or irritation. Excellent shave tonight. Have a great day folks!
No blood = equals successful shave. Welcome to the Dark Side - you are among friends - good to see you over here.
