Greetings, A new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend. For the next month I will be focusing on using my SE razors, Slant razors, and using a variety of Boar, Horse hair, and synthetic brushes and also be using my shave sticks occasionally with my set ups throughout the month and continue to use a variety of DE blades. The Kent/MWF as always provided me with a wonderful protective slick lather for the shave leaving an excellent post shave feel...I've stated many times in my postings that I could easily shave with Kent/MWF shaving soap forever, but like everyone else I like variety with my shaves. Another enjoyable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Sensitive ASB. My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine. Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Saturday morning: Hot shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Junjie/Astra Green day 13 MSC Vintage Spice SS Aveeno Moisturizer MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash Geez, this Astra Green blade got quite a bit duller and it was starting to tug a little during my second pass. The Vintage Spice soap’s gorgeous scent was ever present while I was lathering up and shaving, the lather was awesome, it felt so slick, and it gave me perfect postshave care. The Aveeno moisturizer is unscented so it doesn’t kill the scent of the Vintage Spice aftershave which together with the soap smell exactly like the Shulton Old Spice soap and aftershave. I did three passes but I had to struggle a little to get the desired BBS results - my beard is so tough but I managed. See you all tomorrow - enjoy the weekend! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

DE SOTD, Saturday, September 2nd 2023 Razor : Yaqi Flipside dual comb- Mfg 2019>, tame mid to mid range depending on what comb side used. The Sbar side is slightly more aggressive than the open comb side that I like . Open comb works well for knocking the stubble around the chin area and the SBar side is a nice finishing side for closeness. Very nice affordable razor head that I would recommend(I bought it because I never used a dual comb. Had a excellent close comfortable shave this morning with no issues. Blade : Gillette 7oClock Permasharp(1) sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity. Saint Petersburg steel is slightly better for longevity IMO. Soap : Proraso green, Eucalyptus menthol scented with excellent lather qualities. Brush : Yaqi"Mountain lake" 24mm 2band badger, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great lather painter. 2 band badgers are one of the best brushes to use for general shaving needs IMO. 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 : Proraso green Eucalyptus with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless). Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent stellar comfortable shave with my Yaqi Flipside dual comb razor with a fresh Gillette Permasharp blade. Have some great shaves!
