Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger
Cobra Classic
Feather Professional
CWR
Tabac After Shave Balm

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Cobra Classic Razor and a Feather Professional Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Salaam aleikum wa Rahmat Allah al barakatu!

(Peace be upon you and God’s compassion and his blessings!)

Tuesday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Rapira day 2
Hamol SC (from Syria)
Prep ASB
Booster Polar Ice AS Splash
Aramis EdT

A few years ago I received a couple of tubes of Hamol cream which is from Syria and I absolutely love it. This cream is popular with Syrian barbers and it smells so nice - lot like Williams soap, a little goes a long way, it’s slightly mentholated, and it’s so skin friendly. The Prep and the Polar Ice aftershave took wonderful care of me afterwards, not to mention the lovely fragrance of the Aramis. Two passes were enough to give me a brilliant BBS shave that was so much fun!

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

Nice looking razor.

DE SOTD, Tuesday, July 11th 2023

Razor : Yaqi Beast #2, Created 2022>, upper mid range, the razor consists of Yaqi Mellon V1 top cap + Yaqi dual Flipside base plate and any handle you enjoy, shorter handle is preferred. The shave is excellent with the comb side being milder is great around the chin area. The razor is not overly aggressive and riding the bar(steep angle) is what I enjoy with this razor. This is a great razor because it is sort of adjustable with all the variations it offers if you have these 2 affordable razor heads only IMO. The audio feedback is a nice sizzling sound when shaving that I really enjoy knowing it is going to be a close shave also. Had a stellar shave this mornings with no major issues.
Blade : Gillette Astra SP (4) sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity. Top tier for a lot of folks and affordable if bought in 100 pcs IMO.
Soap : La toja stick- interesting very light smoke scent with excellent lather qualities. Scent is interesting and not over the top.
Brush : Yaqi "Ferrari" 24mm boar bristle, excellent lather generator, soft split end tips, nice splay scrubber, great lather painter. This handle with the bleached bristles make this brush one of better performers, it was bought as a damaged bush with knot issues but still on of the better performers months later, go figure.
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 American barber with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=Excellent stellar very close shave this morning with a Astra SP coated blade. (very close shaving and even more enjoyable than a regular routine shave sometimes, nice change up. Cotton ball tested this morning with no snags.)


Have some great shaves!
