Greetings,

Early morning shave,

I can't remember when i last used the Proraso Red Soap & ASL duo. It reminded myself how much i like them.

Last outing of the non aggressive yet efficient Dorco ST300. These Korean made blades pair together wonderfully with my Parker razors.

A Enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Nivea Men Fresh Kick ASB.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Arko High Performance Shave Cream
Heldtite Synthetic
TAR Adjustable by Tom
Personna Super (68)
CWR
Pinaud Clubman AS

The Arko High Performance Shave Cream lathered well with the Heldtite Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the TAR Adjustable Razor by Tom with a Personna Super (68) Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Well, that's a shame.

Recycled photograph. Things were busy this morning and I forgot to get a picture. Fortunately I had a pic from last week that fit the bill.

Diamondine No. 7
Simpson T3 Trafalgar
Tabac shave soap
Royal Copenhagen cologne

The lather was spot on this morning. There is a lot if back and forth on Tabac but one cannot deny the lather is top notch.

Awesome two pass shave with three passes on the neck. No blood loss and the alum was barely noticeable.

A little witch hazel followed by the Royal Copenhagen and this one cruised across the finish line.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day!

Today’s shave with the Aluminum TAR was what I expected. A new blade made all the difference. Super close reduction and a very satisfying shave

It is an aggressive razor, even on the lower settings (I used a 4, 2, 2 progression) and a very, very light touch is required.

Hot water preparation
Argan Oil PSO
Shavemac 2-Band Silvertip Badger
Castle Forbes 1445 Shaving Cream
Aluminum TAR by Tom
Schick Plus Platinum (1)
AOS Lavender After Shave Balm



Happy shaving - Karl
