    Cold Water Rinse
    LaToja Shaving Stick
    Jayaruh #296 Brush
    Eversharp H2 Hussy
    Personna Injector
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend

    In Harrisburg, PA, at the Holiday Inn Express. My prep was just a cold water rinse. The LaToja Shaving Stick face lathered well with the Jayaruh #296 Brush. I did two passes with the Eversharp H2 Hussy razor with a Personna Injector blade and ended up with a terrible shave. I need to find me some injector blades today. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Granddad's Blend AS. I wish I were clean, smooth, and refreshed... Perhaps tomorrow.

    384F58A1-5152-4E95-BABB-585A2B5380F3.jpeg Sunday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Rapira day 7
    Simply Bee SS
    Prep ASB
    Booster Polar Ice AS Splash

    Not one of my better shaves today unfortunately, in fact a terrible one because the Rapira blade literally died halfway through the first pass and I didn’t have the time to change it so I stopped right there. At least the Simply Bee soap felt very comfortable on my face and the lather was terrific. The Prep and Polar Ice aftershave finished off the job on a really pleasant note. Mission unaccomplished, let’s hope tomorrow will be better.

    Sorry to hear you had a bad shave Jeff. Tomorrow will be a better day. A bad shave to start the day is not good. :(

    Great picture Joseph. The 1947 Gillette Super Speed with wings is an excellent razor.
