  5. Friday morning:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Gillette day 10
    Stirling Frozen Tundra SS
    Prep ASB
    Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

    My Yaqi Barber Pole is not only a gorgeous brush but it’s also a hell of a performer. It whipped up fabulous lather from the Frozen Tundra soap which was so rich, super slick, the scent of this soap is delightful - it’s a blend of wintergreen, peppermint, as well as earthy notes, the menthol sensation is so strong that after the Glacials I would say that it’s the second coldest of Rod’s soaps, and the skincare is awesome. The Prep and the Alt Innsbruck were a perfect finish. Three passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave that I really enjoyed!

    Have a great weekend - be well and safe!

    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Musgo Real Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #292 Badger
    King Cobra
    Feather Professional
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Sensitive 5 in 1 AS Balm

    The Musgo Real Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #292 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the King Cobra with a Feather Professional Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Sensitive 5 in 1 AS Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  9. I trust you made it back in time to shave!!!

    Thanks for the kind words.

  17. SE SOTD, Fri, SEptember 10th 2021, A very inexpensive shave today for those who do not like to spend money on finer gear.

    Razor: Yaqi 50mm V1 Excalibur, great tame mid range, great daily driver for most folks, I get close shaves with this nice razor.
    Blade: Chinese Blue injector (2), sharp & smooth with some longevity, not top tier, good pricing.
    Soap: Gillette Pure, nice scent, excellent lather qualities IMO. Affordable for most.
    Brush: Yaqi 22mm Cola, Small foot print, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, great scrub, great lather painter.
    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.
    Post shave: Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BbS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] excellent shave with my V1 Yaqi Excalibur + a China blue blade.
