    It’s been 4 days since my last shave so I had quite a bit of stubble to take down. With a fresh blade, the Taiga did not disappoint... even with the SB baseplate installed tonight. I’m smooth and comfortable for bed.

    Wednesday morning:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Schick day 10
    Master Soap Creations Cherry Freeze SS
    Prep ASB
    Osage Rub AS Splash

    There are two versions of Cherry Freeze - glycerine and tallow and today I used the glycerine version. It’s got a different scent than the tallow one - this one smells more like cherry scented cough syrup but in a nice enough way, it lathers very easily though it’s not as slick as the tallow version, its menthol sensation is quite strong, and the postshave feeling is good. The Prep and the Osage Rub aftershave gave me lots of additional icy cold care. By the way this was a cold water shave and a very good one - our weather has been as hot as hell lately!

    Have a great day - be well and safe!

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #217
    Custom Wood Handle Enders Speed Shaver
    Enders Speed Blade
    CWR
    Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC

    The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Custom Wood Handle Enders Speed Shaver with an Enders Speed Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Flat-Bottom Tech-Prismatic (Feather), Shake Sharp (Treet Plat + Kai). The FBT is more fun with the Prismatic cap but still pretty mild. As an experiment with the Shake Sharp I combined the widest DE blade, the Kai (bottom), with the narrow Treet Plat (top), separating the two edges by that additional differential. Certainly didn't hurt.[​IMG]

    Hi Friends,

    here is my just ended shave (09.06.2021)

    E51C218D-E0CA-4A24-957B-0840BFAF3F9F.jpeg
    Razor: Karve CC with C-plate // Blade: Gillette 7 o‘clock yellow // Soap: Stirling Barbershop // Brush: Omega Hi-Brush // Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman // Music: Alanis Morissette - Live/Unplugged

    Coldwater-Shave today. Second time in my life :lyrtuy5: I like it and will do a Coldwater-Shave more often. Very nice.

    The shave was very very good. I was in need of a shave after a hard day at work. I‘m tired, so not much words today…

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten
