Crazy shave. I’ll start with the good and thats the soap. I recently acquired it and if you havent tried it… you should. Its awesome stuff!
The bad… the razor and blade combo … man it felt as if i shaved off every little minor bump . I was bleeding all over the place lol. But at the end.. my face was extremely smooth BBS SMOOTH. Lol but a little tender

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Semogue Owners Club Boar
3D Injector Razor
Black Label Injector Blade
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Semogue Owners Club Boar Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 3D Injector Razor with a Black Label Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thanks for the information my friend!

I don’t imagine it’s as intense as any of the Glacial soaps because those babies are 10/10 for menthol power!

Tuesday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/7 AM day 7
Hamol SC
Prep ASB
Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

This Hamol cream is from Syria of all places and it’s very popular with barbers over there. The scent is really nice - it smells so much like the North American Williams soap, just a small dab on both cheeks is enough to produce thick, dense, rich, slick, protective lather, it’s slightly mentholated, and it’s so skin friendly. As always the Prep works its magic by leaving my face feeling great, and the Alt Innsbruck aftershave smells so beautiful - not only that, it’s icy cold. Three passes gave me one hell of a great shave!

Enjoy your day - be well and safe!
