Round 1, Match 2: Wholly Kaw - King of Oud vs Captain's Choice - Venture
Shave 1: Wholly Kaw - King of Oud
The Setup:
Razor: Merkur 34C
Blade: Feather Stainless
Brush: Perfecto Pure Badger
Mug: Henry Cavendish
Post Shave: Witch Hazel and Cetaphil
I am really looking for better lather in this round. To prepare, I turned to our friends at West Coast Shaving to help me Build A Better Lather:
.
Since I'm using samples, it is hard to load the brush the way they describe in the video, but I did the best I could by spreading soap on the bottom of my mug. The results were a much improved lather. It still wasn't great, but it was better than before.
The first pass was a great slick shave. Maybe I didnt put enough soap in the mug because the lather second pass was thin, but still slick. I'm shifting to loading the brush then face lathering as best I can. Will continue to work on it.
WTG and XTG and touchup for close to BBS.
