During this month there may be some basic shaves. However, I am going to incorporate my Gemini theme (Twin shaves-same software and hardware for two days in a row).
Rating: 5 / 5
Razor: Drew Dick 7/8” Quarter Hollow Purple Heartwood
Brush: Sawdust Creation Studio Old Cahaba
Lather: WTF Vintage Barbershop
Aftershave: WTF Vintage Barbershop
Additional Care:
Barbero Alum Block
Thayer's Witch Hazel - Aloe Vera
Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm
Leading off, WTF Vintage Barbershop. I thoroughly enjoy this soap. It is a soft soap, probably considered by some as a crisp. A small pea sized sample removed from the tub yields massive amounts of lather. I had enough for the usual three three passes plus a fourth lathering of the face and neck for
sh%#*ts and giggles.(final rehydration). I easily would have been able to get a two pass head shave if I felt adventurous.
The Drew Dick razor, one of two that I am fortunate to have, did an amazing job. It delivered a super comfortable shave. The more I use this blade the better I like it when compared with the other Dick. Both are excellent shaver. Today’s razor, a quarter hollow, has more weight. It just feels great in the hand.
The scent of the soap and splash is relatively long lasting. Almost five hours post shave, I am continuing to get subtle whiffs as a I move about my day. The glacial balm round out this shave nicely. Smelling good, face feeling good and extremely happy with the whole process today. Hopefully a “twin” copy tomorrow.
