    SEptember 3rd Tabac Tuesday SOTN

    A glorious 2.5 pass shave was had tonight. I read there is a V2.0 of the PAA Cube - I need to get a couple as mine is running low . I'm smooth and smell great for bed. Happy shaves and happy Wednesday all!

    7FDCD99B-4F97-43F7-BF96-EC0BF503AC0F.jpeg Shower/Shave Of The Day
    September 3, 2019

    *Shower:
    • VO5 Dry Scalp Shampoo
    • Axe Snake Peel Body Wash

    * Shave:
    • Prep: Hot Shower, Nivea For Men Moisturizing Face Wash
    • Lather: Art Of Shaving Lavender Shaving Soap
    • Brush: Razorock Plissoft
    • Razor: Ming Shi 2000S (setting 3)
    • Blade: Dorco Prime (1st use)
    • Passes: WTG/ATG
    • Post: Cold water rinse, Gillette Aftershave Lotion, Pinaud Clubman Vanilla Aftershave

    Today’s shave resulted in a DFS. Just a quick 2 passer with some AOS Lavender soap which smells beautiful and lathers like a champ. Very impressive post-rinse moisturizing component. The Dorco Prime is a forgiving blade that I am finding that I enjoy as well.

    SOTD 20190904.

    Yesterday a fellow shaver gave me a hybrid razor head:

    [​IMG]

    A (very) slant head, top plate OC, bottom plate SB.
    Used an aluminum custom handle with it.

    A double experiment: test this razor, and a shaving soap that I was not sure of.
    In case the soap and/or the razor were no good, a trusted soap and razor are standby:

    [​IMG]

    This is the setup:

    [​IMG]
    J&T® katalox / OUMO Brush imitation silvertip synth.
    Brick "Tough & Masculine" shaving soap.
    Vreto "Aloe Vera" scheerzeep (standby).
    Hybride razor / Alu. custom handle.
    Timeless Ti 0.68 OC / Stork Ti "Anaconda" handle (standby).
    Centwin Super Platinum (4).
    Hugo Boss "Bottled" EdT.

    The test:

    Loaded the brush with soap and whipped up a lather in my shaving bowl - looks OK for now.
    Then the razor: after having shaved a part of my face, I knew - this razor is too aggressive for me.
    In the mean time the lather vanished - exit shaving soap.
    Finished my shave with the standby stuff.
