    Zorrik DE Blade (2)

    I desperately needed a headshave. Picked out the Rockwell Model T for this gigantic task. Lately, I have been extending my headshaves every 4 days and that's not like me. Chose the CC North because it's easy to lather and I needed it's super slickness to let that razor glide over that thick turf.

    Did 3 passes for a cueball result, but got a weep in the middle of the back of my head. No biggie. Cold water and the alum treatment took care of it. Did get some definite Alum feedback by my temple near my left ear. That part has been difficult to get smooth and I guess that I overshaved there. Anyway, did the witch hazel and matching splash routine to end this session. I will do my face shave tomorrow morning. Take care.

  10. Thanks Gary. The Zorrik blades are pretty sharp, however, they are not as smooth as the Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE blades.

    I went with my King Cutter for this session.. It's nice to shave a 2 day stubble with a straight every so often. Did 3 passes for an error-free smooth, comfortable shave. Went with the Doug Smythe/ Matt Pisarcik collaboration that gave me a nice, creamy and slick lather. Here's my lather:

    The alum feedback was negligible. Finished with the witch hazel and the brand new bottle of Pinaud-Clubman aftershave. Take care.
  15. Fine shave this morning. ALMOST like yesterday, but the appearance of a small cut killed THAT off. And speaking of killing off, I was able to do just that to the small cut, thanks to the cold-water rinse and aftershave AFTER the shave-the cut happened DURING, on South Porcupine(chin). A minute at the Loading Dock. Solid shave all over(minus the aforementioned cut). Good work from the aforementioned Proraso Refreshing A.S. I put on a little too much, but it is calming down now. Halston Cologne to finish. Most Outstanding.
