    Saturday Straights' Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Wash
    Col. Conk Bay Rum
    Jayaruh #339 Boar
    Weck Sextoblade Med
    Personna
    CWR
    Lucky Tiger

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Col. Conk Bay Rum Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #339 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Weck Sextoblade Med razor with a Personna blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Crowne & Crane Thuringian Forest today. 20 seconds to load the Henri et Victoria High Mountain White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Personna Med Pred in the Gillette NEW Short Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Southern Oud aftershave.

    My Saturday shave:

    NXT Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/7 AM day 3
    Wriggly Tin Rosemary Mint SS
    Prep ASB

    Smooth as a baby’s tukhis in two easy fun-filled passes - this Wriggly Tin soap is another great South African creation. There’s also nothing like a nice massage with the Prep cream afterwards!

    Enjoy your day!

    I love it when you use that Gillette New... Beautiful!! Is that original? Or a re-plate? Just curious.

    Gillette Red Tip (B4) Razor
    Bolzano Superinox Blade
    JR #112/27mm Boar Knot
    Jeeves of Hudson St. Cherry Blossom Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Elvado Wild Mint Lime After Shave

    This shave contains items I recently acquired. Soap from Jeeves which performed very good. Just took a little more time to lather and think this is a good one for boar brushes. The Red Tip which is now my favorite Super Speed. And the Elvado which had some burn, but not much, kinda felt warm, but Ok. Overall a near BBS shave in two passes.
