Early morning Shave.

A wonderful performance from the Ever-Ready 1912.

The vintage Ever-Ready SE razors don't get the credit they so rightly deserve paired up with the Gem PTFE blade it mowed through my stubble with smooth efficiency.

An enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Victor no9 EdT to the chest & pulse points.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Tuesday morning’s Grand Freeze:


Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Wilkinson Sword/Shark day 7
MSC Peppermint Lime SS
Prep ASB
MSC Peppermint Lime AS Splash
Pe Re Ja Lemon Cologne

It’s going to be a really warm day so I opted for another icy cold shave - my brother Fernando’s Peppermint Lime soap and aftershave have such a gorgeous scent. The lime is the more dominant feature but I can still catch some peppermint notes - the soap’s tallow formula promotes such thick, rich, mega slick lather with a whopper of a menthol sensation as well as fantastic skincare. The Prep delivered great on the moisturizing and soothing while the Peppermint Lime aftershave went on frigidly and because it’s witch hazel based there’s no burning or stinging. The Pe Re Ja lemon cologne is from Turkey and it smells so nice. Three passes gave me such an awesome BBS shave!

Enjoy your day - be well and safe!

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shaving Soap
Bunny B400 Badger by T. White
Bunny V3 Injector by T. White
Supply Black Label injector
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shaving Soap lathered well with the Bunny B400 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with the NOTSO comb and a Supply 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...

I see...so the AV Sport is the best of two evils, she would say?

Soap : Razorock XXX, nice unique clean scent + excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi Red Zebra 26 mm synthetic , excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, very nice scrubber + excellent lather painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Razorock XXX with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Razorock SLOC with a Personna Red blade.


Have some great shaves!

Fine shave this morning. Nice work at the loading dock. Put about a minute's worth of loaded soap onto my face and neck. Ready for the shave itself. Solid work at the cheeks&sideburns, especially going after that spot I usually miss below my ear until I got it all. Porcupine Alley came out great. South Porcupine (chin)has become a challenge of late. Cactus was fine, although I think I can do a better job tomorrow at the area surrounding Ingrown Swamp(my ingrown hairs at the NW corner of Cactus.
I did develop some red polka-dots, but after the cold-water rinse and VERY cold A.S.(Stoylin Glacial Lime), they were gone. Course we recall my "Pythagorean Theory of Shaving", which I will list at the bottom. (Thanks, Doc Pythagore)* 2 passes. I'm happy to give this one another Outta This World Excellent,

*IT AIN'T HOW YOUR FACE AND NECK FEEL DURING THE SHAVE, IT'S HOW THEY FEEL AFTER THAT COUNTS.

Back after a week’s vacation in Cape May with no WiFi or cell phone. I did manage to jump on the bride’s computer which I took away from her a few times! But otherwise she was restricted to just the TV news and the beach! The weather was superb, and we were able to enjoy the beach every day! She’s been working entirely too hard for the last few months! So yours truly whisked her away for a week. It was time well spent! I brought my Tedalus and my Supply V2 and enjoyed my shaves with my standard MWF and Pre de Provence Bergamot & Thyme AS Balm. The perfect kit for a week of sun and beach.

This morning’s mug shave featured the Rigarazor 7/8. Sergej, the Latvian maker, is apparently so ill he is unable to work. I would ask that everyone in our community who are believers please pray for his return to health. Andrej, who I believe is his son has picked up the mantle and is continuing the brand, selling straight razors on EBay. Please support him in his efforts! Sergej crafted this Rigarazor which arrived several years ago with a killer edge which yours truly dropped and chipped after just a few shaves. After repairing it, I’ve continued to enjoy this magnificent straight razor which left me smooth as a peach after three passes this morning.

The noggin shave featured the Barbasol Floating Head, a magnificently efficient vintage safety razor. This is one razor that demands good technique. I joke about Madame Barbasol behaving like a jealous woman demanding full attention. Woe betide the unknowing shaver whose attention wanders, for the lady bites! Having danced with her for several years, I’m well acquainted with her eccentricities and always show her the attention she desires! This morning’s dome shave was its usual excellent leaving your happy narrator velveteen smooth from noggin to neck!

RAZOR: Rigarazor 7/8 (Mug), Barbasol Floating Head (Dome)
BLADE: Feather DE (Dome)
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a heavy scrub with Argan Oil
BRUSH: BG LE Silvertip Badger
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by a rinse with Humphreys WH. Finished with Pre de Provence Bergamot & Thyme AS Balm.
