SOD Monday June 21, 2021 Ever wonder how many shaves in each tub of Proraso? See below in the Lather report! Brush: Parker Synth Brush Bowl: Shave Nation Lather: Proraso Red Soap (5) Razor: Gillette 1959 E4 Settings: WTG:3-XTG:2-ATG:1 Blade: Astra Superior Stainless (1) Razor: Gillette Styler Post: Omega Alum Block Post: Thayers Witch Hazel Balm: Proraso Red
SNMIRN/Kai. 8 setting. Another enjoyable shave. Touch up on crown stubble with my single edge Barbasol NFH/Proline. I think what keeps this from being an A shaver rather than a strong B for me is not its mildness but its lack of rigidity. Unfortunately the cap won't hold on when using a shim . Only a problem in that one area so not an issue for most folks I'm guessing. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

Shave of the Week Starting 21 June 2021 Pal 3 piece razor (British made) GSB or Astra blade Burma Shave Boar brush Viking "Citron" SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Assorted A/S Rummaging through my shave cabinet again and ran across this Pal razor. British made and aluminum, I didn't hold out high hopes that the shave would be anything special. Well, was I ever wrong! This is a really delightful, lightweight shaver that worked ever so well for me. The Burma Shave boar is nicely broken in and does a fine job building up a nice lather. The Viking "Citron" SS is a really fine product too. Not much left so I think I'll just keep using it till it's gone. Might take a couple three weeks but that's ok. Like I said, nice soap. So, my face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.
