Wonderful LWSC shave this morning. The Drew Dick razor easily took care of this mornings growth. The alum report was nonexistent and the post shave routine has left my face smooth and refreshed.

I hope you all have an enjoyable Saturday.

Super Saturday shaves Barry. Have a great afternoon.

Last night, I headshaved with this razor and
blade (2nd use) so I decided to use it again for today's shave. I haven't used my ultimate favorite brush in awhile so I went for it. I drenched the brush and used it to wet my face and proceeded to load the brush without removing the excess water. Man, I got a very creamy, slick lather that started out thin, but as I added more soap, it became perfect for me. I must say the container and the brush got messy. Lol! Did 3 passes instead of my usual 2 because I had more than enough lather. Since I am using a mild razor and blade, why not? I would say that I got a close, cotton ball BBS shave without any damage to my skin. The alum gave some feedback on my neck, but it wasn't earth shattering. Splashed on the matching aftershave to finish this A+ session. Take care.

awesome gents.

Thank you Gary

Just a stellar shave Joe

Rocking the super 84 lately. Excellent Gary.
