  2. That is correct!

    If you want a stiffer brush, you can go with shorter loft, 65% tail or mane/boar.

    Tuesday's
    ZCOLDWATER1.jpg

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #39 Synthetic
    Micromatic Clog-Pruf
    GEM Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Florida Water

    The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #39 Synthetic brush. Two passes with my Micromatic Clog-Pruf Razor and a GEM Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Florida Water after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  4. That explains why the 65/35 50mm loft didn't quite suit me I suspect. I had it lowered to 50mm from the, I think, 57 that was standard.
  5. Thank u!

    U know sometimes I think ppl get caught up on trying all the newest soaps and aftershaves. I love going back to MWF. It's just plain good soap.

  8. I'm quite interested in getting a couple of those ManHands soaps..I don't think they are THAT new, but I never heard of ManHands before I saw the site a few months ago.
  9. Here's my shave for Dec. 29:

    Pre-shave-Dial 4 Men (Complete Freshness)
    Shave-Gillette Foamy Barbershop Fresh
    Razor-Gillette Sensor 2 Pivot Plus DisposeABLE
    A.S.-Clubman Country Club

    Pre-Shave Show(Brought to you exclusively by ME): I didn't put on enough Clubman this morning, this will change tomorrow(and presumably all my Clubman days). Thinking about a return to Barbasol after the Barbershop Fresh..will decide later.

  10. Tuesday, December 29, 2015


    King Cobra with Triad Aristocrat Ti
    Feather Pro Super #6
    Wolf Whiskers TGN Finest
    Shannon’s Soaps Bay Patchouli Grapefruit
    Alum, Witch Hazel +Menthol, Whipped Shea Butter
    DCCS Small Batch Shave Tonic
    Burberry for Men



    Today's shave was a two pass + clean up BBS. A slight tugging was noticeable but the Pro Super still delivered a tingling close shave, perfect for a night out with the family. Shannon Soap is one of those extra thirsty soaps, that like a few drops of water added slowly and... BOOM, you get a fragrant, slick and creamy lather with excellent skin care. Bay Patchouli Grapefruit is an excellent light bay scent that went well with the generous splash of the Shave Tonic and later on a good spritz of Bayberry. Hope you're Tuesday is rockin'. :git:

  12. SOTD December 28, 2015

    Prep: Warm shower, Dove Men+Care Face Scrub
    Brush: Badger
    Razor: Three-piece
    Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
    Lather: Soap Commander Vision (sample)
    Post: Witch hazel splash, Fine Platinum, Nivea balm
    WTG, ATG, touch-up

    A rare evening shave. The Soap Commander Vision has a vibrant, clean, fresh scent. Unfortunately I used a little too much water and it was a little thin. I really enjoy the smell of Fine Platinum! I used American Blend yesterday and it was also terrific. Hope your Monday was successful and tomorrow is a great one!
