Good afternoon guys!
I could've pass on shaving today because I still look fine with 28 hrs growth, but I am going to services this evening and always want to be clean-shaven for it.
Mühle R102 Cap / Rockwell Handle Frankenrazor
Rockwell DE Blade (2)
JR #290 Synthetic Brush
Stirling Coconut Lime SS and AS
Dickenson's WH
Nivea for Men ASB
Whiskers: 28 hours
This is my fifth and final shave using the R102 for my mini focus. Everything worked well. Using the scuttle to make my lather and keeping my brush warm has been a real treat for me. Using this method, I find the lather really comes out creamy and slick. I picked the Coconut Lime because I wanted to brighten up this cold winter day by pretending it is a nice summer day. The scent is nice, clean, fresh scent.
The Mųhle razor with a Rockwell blade is a great combination for me. In 2 passes with minor touchups, I got a BBS shave without a scratch or any irritation.
I have shaved with many carts and DE's over the years that I needed to shave every day because I couldn't get my shaves close enough for me to look socially acceptable after 24 hrs. Since coming here, my shaves have improved, however, this DE razor is king in my book. I probably could go 36 hrs before I needed to shave. Ok, maybe not 36, more like 30.
Finally, I did my normal post shave routine applying the matching aftershave last. I did get a nice stinging burn on my neck and under the chin, but I can deal with it. Lol! Have an awesome afternoon guys!
