August 28, 2020 Wolfman WR-2 1.05mm Feather Simpson CH2 Synthetic SV Felce Aromatica Shave Soap & Aftershave TGIF!!! Wow, what a week. I decided to pair the Jade CH2 synthetic with the SV Felce Aromatica for Fougere Friday. The soap destroyer whipped up a mountain of the rich slick decadent lather. The scent is simply intoxicating. Three passes and minimal touch ups ended in a near BBS. I skipped buffing my neck this morning. Happy Friday everyone. I hope you all have a great day.
Thanks, Joe, but an update. Ben came over to help me with some plastering, and showed me a hold he calls a reverse scissors. It solved my problem! VBBS above and below the neckline this morning! Thanks for sharing the video!
It proves there's more than one way to skin a cat. That's great that you found you way to get a smooth neck.
August 28th Razor: Karve Aluminum C Blade: Gillette Super Thin (1) Brush: Alpha EverGoose Pre-shave: PAA Rabid Banana Soap: B&M Foúgere Gothique PAA Galactic Witch Hazel PAA Star Jelly AS: B&M Foúgere Gothique Good morning! Fabulous Foúgere Friday shave! Three passes for near BBS. Light tickle from the alum. First use of the Alpha EverGoose synthetic. Stiff! Fans of the CH2 synthetic would enjoy the knot in this brush. I'll use it through the weekend to get to know it better. Have a great day! Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Aug 28 SOTD Good morning gents! It's a Freezing Fatboy Friday Shave! 1961 - G1 Gillette Fatboy (9) Polsilver Super Iridium DE Blade (?) Rockwell Synthetic Brush Chiseled Face Cryogen SS and AS I needed to wake up and this shave delivered. I haven't used this Fatboy that I won in a TSD for some time so it needed to come out to play. Did my usual routine by wetting my face and dry load the brush by lightly tapping five times. Applied the dry load to my face and then wet the tips and the lather was showing up. I repeated wetting the tips and hit the lather to get the consistency needed for me. The lather was not voluminous, but that's the way I like it when I have only a day's growth. Did 2 passes and got an IBSS + shave. The blade was ok, but it was not sharp enough to really get a BBS so I just called it quits after 2 passes. It wasn't until the end of the shave when I cleaned the razor that I had a Polsilver blade. I binned it and will put a Rockwell DE blade in this razor for the next time. Finished with the matching aftershave to end a nice, cool shave. Have a fantastic Friday fellas!
