30 Day Rule/Focus; February 2025. All Are Welcome.

Very nice shave Neal. I have a few injectors and my favorite is the I-1, then my E-3. They do a great job on my stubble.

 

Super shave and post John. I don't envy you dealing with that Arctic cold air.

Soap = MWF
Brush = Omega EVO synthetic
Bowl = face lathering
Razor = Gillette Slim @5 then 3 to finish up with
Blade = Vintage Henckels (2) feels a lot sharper in the Slim @5. I have high hopes this one will last longer than 3 or 4 days
Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal, Nivea Balm
ASL = Imperial Leather
Scent = English leather cologne splash
Score = 9 + / 10 superb start to the day
Damage: none

Alum was fairly acute, meaning I got close

MWF 0 + 0 + 1 +0.5 + 1 +1 + 0.5 + 1 + 1
Sterling 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
Have a great Monday one and all

 

Nice going. Nice to see some more face lathering. I did happen by the Ikea bowls during the week, and although the price was right, thought the ones they had on the day were a bit too small

Great shave Joe, too bad about the weeper

thanks Gary

Great setup. cool chubby 2 you got there

Fun reminiscing Neal. Great sounding shave. Love the name El Caballero by the way

thanks John

Good going with the shave and surviving that kind of cold

Great shave Joe. How much Alum feedback is too much I wonder?
More boar brushes then Lol!

Totally agree thanks Joe

 

Shavette Shave # 248

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: Parker SRX
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Brush: Ever Ready 200T
Lather: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
Aftershave: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
Additional Care:
Omega Alum

On tap is another fun filled day in the Sun. Yes I am getting my natural boost of Vitamin D3. Another fine King of Oud shave with the assistance of the Parker SRX. Here is the lather shot made in the Van Yulay silicon travel bow:

While the bow did not produce a lather with a lot of volume, there was a sufficient amount of soap for three passes plus a fourth application as a final hydration point.

The shave was finished off nicely with the KoO aftershave. Unfortunately I will finish off the aftershave before the soap. No big deal, any remaining shaves will feature several options including:
Stirling Agar
PAA Sangre de Drago
Los Jabones de Joserra Kilix
RazoRock Stallion

Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

 

Sweet

 

Thank you Chris

Wonderful story regarding your first razor. Very nice shave Neal.

 

Fine presentation and shave Gary.

Freedom February

Razor - Schick Type M Injector
Blade - (2)
Soap - El Caballero
Brush - Semogue 620 Boar

Second shave with the Type M and another beauty. Rough night at work last night so I was needing a nice, smooth, relaxing shave and boy did I ever get it. The small Semogue boar brush loaded super easily and gave me a super slick lather. The razor took over with total smoothness, comfort, and it was quite relaxing and fun to do three full passes and enjoy the entire process and experience. I'm relaxed, smelling great and ready to chill before heading to bed. Great way to end the day. Well, my day, your night. Have a great Monday!
