Fat Friday May 28th SOTD

A smooth and mostly carefree Fat Friday shave with a fresh Schick Proline blade today. I’m repeating this razor this weekend . I’m smooth and smell great for the day.





Happy Healthy Shaves all.

There is no greater mystery in my shaving world than how the Wardonia manages my ATG head shave at all, let alone magnificently given its almost complete lack of blade support. Let the mystery be the songwriter wrote. Feather blade.

 

SE SOTD, Fri, May28th, 2021

Razor: Yaqi Excalibur 1st gen- Mfg 2021, great <mid range, easy to maneuver around the face, easy daily driver for myself. Good entry point razor into SE 50mm blade razor realm IMO.
Blade: Chinese knock off of the Kai pink blade, bare edge(2)- sharp & smooth + longevity? Great naked edge blades that came with my shavette, packaging is misleading. I will just call them blues(naked edge or unguarded).Very sharp in a shavette for this fellow.
Soap: Razorock Lavender, nice scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi 24mm 2band badger- excellent lather generator, soft tips, great scrubber, great lather painter. Very nice change up brush from the synthetics that I also enjoy very much. Spoiled brush shaver.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock King Louis lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BbS + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur 1st gen 50mm with a Chinese blue naked blade.


Have some great shaves!
