  1. Tuesday 13 May 2025

    2 Days growth

    Hot Water Prep and Preshave = Palmolive Shave cream
    Cream/Soap = Stirling Bergamot Lavender
    Brush = Semogue Galahad C3 Premium Boar
    Bowl = white plastic
    Razor = Gillette Nacet / 7 o’clock OC
    Blade = Henckel (4)
    Passes = 2 +
    Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal, TOBS Royal Forest
    ASL = Fine Latigo
    Scent = Santal Spirit Sandalwood

    Superbly smooth shave from the Gillette Nacet. A bit worn here and there but fine shaver.
    Day 4 on the Henckel was dulling a bit, but still provided the necessary smoothness
    Binned anyway just to be on the safe side
    Have a great Tuesday everyone

  4. The punchline for that Wilkinson shave soap should be akin to that of Hai Karate-"Be careful how you use it".

  8. Here was my Tuesday shave:

    Brush-Stoylin mid-sized Synthetic

    No other changes from yesterday.

    Again, a fine shave. No issues of negativity. Clean, clear all over with that Razorock XXX soap(I think I didn't mention earlier that it's XXX-maybe a long time ago). I had to re-load the brush for my second pass. although a little less than for the first pass. Another thing about the soap, it does go on drier than others-perhaps due to the long time period between uses. Doesn't affect the strength much, just something to be aware of. Good close from the Stephan Bay Rum A.S. Super Duper Outstanding.

  18. Great setup and shave. I have used Razorock in the past and found their soaps slick, however, they don't produce a Santa Claus lather. I really didn't have any real issues with that brand.
