Shaved: with 3 days growth and very pleased with this razor, my current favorite. Just received the closed comb head for this ATT S1 Slant in the mail today and plan on shaving with that next either tomorrow or the next day. I may use my new ARCO soap to try it out in the twist-up tube that I shaved it into pieces with a potato peeler and stuffed it into. .

1 Day growth

Cold water prep

Razor = Gillette Labs (3)
Passes = 1 and done
Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal

All done after 1 pass, more than good enough

Once again the Alum was silent

Great way to start the day

If you haven’t already tried this razor it is worth considering

Have a great day everyone

The cooler temperatures mean more Tabac love is in store for today!

 

Happy Anniversary!
