Greetings,

Early morning Shave,

As the Summer months are approaching I have decided to do two head shaves a week until the colder months are upon us again.

The Gillette guard on it's third outing performed wonderfully feeling smooth and efficient leaving my head smooth & error free...I'll carry on with the Gillette Guard with my coming weekend head shave as I feel as though it still has another shave left in it.
A comfortable early morning face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Tuesday morning’s Grand Freeze:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Rapira day 2
MSC Frosted Bay Rum SS
Prep ASB
MSC Frosted Bay Rum AS Splash

As I’ve said before many times my dear brother Fernando makes some of the most wonderful soaps and aftershaves I’ve ever used in my life. His Frosted Bay Rum has such a magnificent scent - the soap’s tallow formula gives it such awesome lather that’s so thick, rich, super slick as well as protective, it gives a whopper of a menthol sensation, and the skincare is terrific. The Prep’s scent is so nice - to me it smells exactly like the Noxzema cream, it seems to pair very well with any bay rum scented soap, its postshave care is so soothing and moisturizing, while the Frosted Bay Rum aftershave has the same gorgeous scent as the soap, it’s witch hazel based so it never stings or burns, and it’s FRIGID. Three passes with my cherished Super Speed gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was so much fun!

Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe!

Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Heldtite Synthetic
Eversharp Schick G
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Heldtite Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Eversharp Schick G and a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

DE SOTD, Tuesday, May 16th 2023

Razor : Yaqi Slope slant 316 SS torsional type, Mfg 2023>, mild range to tame mid range depending on blade used. Accurate machining and finish QC. I find this razor works well with a Kai SS extra wide blade for myself. Had a great comfortable shave with no issues.
Blade : Kai SS extra wide(10) sharp and smoooth with excellent longevity. Interesting blade because there are no other extra wide blades manufactured anymore other than Kai SS and it gives a excellent shave IMO. Great for mild razors!
Soap : Razorock XXX Fresco, slightly mentholated with that nice XXX clean scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi" Artic sky" 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle splay 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 Fresco with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my Yaqi Slope slant with a Kai extra wide blade. Great shave considering I had a very close shave yesterday & a blade on 10 uses!


Have some great shaves!

I guess you could classify today’s #SOTD as a “Mediterranean Shave.” I can’t call it an Italian shave since the Bic Metal is made in Greece.
