Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new eclectic shave set up to start the Weekend....Maiden combined head & face shave with the Wilkinson Sword Classic Premium TTO which is significantly more assertive than the King C. Gillette paired up the Mers SuperShave X Platinum which are manufactured in china made of Swedish steel. I'm pleasantly surprised by the performance of the WS Premium TTO this morning especially my head shave.

The Monsavon Au Lait along with MWF/Kent are some of my favourite shaving soaps. The post shave feel that both of these soaps gives is absolutely superb, making each shave I have with them a very enjoyable shaving experience.

A close efficient face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Replenishing PSB

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Saturday morning:

King C. Gillette Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Derby day 13
Bundubeard Gentle Giant SS
Aloe Vesta Moisturizer
Proraso Red AS Splash

Did it ever feel great to relax and take my time this morning - there’s nothing I hate more than having to rush a shave. My dear brother Jaco who owns Bundubeard in Pretoria, South Africa makes wonderful soaps and his Gentle Giant is one of them. The scent of this soap is so GORGEOUS, the lather is such a pleasure to work up - thick, rich, ever so slick as well as cushiony and protective, with such a soothing, comfortable postshave feeling. The Aloe Vesta moisturizer works so well as a balm, and the Proraso Red aftershave smells delightful. Three passes gave me a fabulous BBS shave that was so much fun!

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

The James of Hudson Street Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #447 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the M. Hunter & Son 5/8 Straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and then Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
