Count me in for June!
Thanks to @
GDCarrington for the great explanation of the 30-day Rule / Focus and to @
Bama Samurai for facilitating this effort each month!
I will be joining as a one-month newbie to traditional shaving, so this will be a 30-day rule for me. The objective of course is technique.
My tools:
Pre-Shower Prep: Lucky Tiger Lemon Cleansing Facial Cream
Morning Hot Shower
Prep: Pre-Shave Oil - The Art of Shaving
Soap: Arko
Brush: Omega Pro 48
Razor: Gillette Tech “Fat Handle”
Blade: Gillette Wilkinson Sword Stainless (India)
Mustache/Beard Trim: Schick Golden 500
After Shave: ?
I’ve chosen:
- Omega brush because it's my only brush.
- Arko because my newbie brush technique finds it easy to build a good lather.
- GilletteTech - because I’ve gotten used to it this month.
- Wilkinson Sword Stainless - because I’ve tried it and it didn’t hurt me! Plus it’s the one blade that I have enough to last through the entire month!!
I am hoping to be able to mix in a variety of after shaves to try a few that I haven’t before. I believe that though the effect on my skin may vary with different aftershaves, the technique of my shave isn’t affected by this variable. Yes?
I’m an everyday shaver during the week, but a bit sporadic on the weekend. I will attempt to do more weekend shaving during this month.
Looking forward to the experience.
Cheers!
