This is 2nd day of cheapskate test.
Razor: Gillette Tech (vintage)
Blade: Personna blue(2)
Oil: Secret Shave
Soap/lather: Walmart brand can.
After shave: Gillette gel
Small finger bowl for lather
General routine; Hot water, oil, lather. 1st pass across upper cheek, WTG down to apple, with slight touch-ups along the way. Do other side the same. The 2nd pass is a thin lather, then ATG/WTG/XTG all around where indicated. Finally, feel all over for holidays, usually 2 or 3 small patches, apply what`s left in bowl to each patch.... voila ! this morning was a near, I mean really near BBS. happy camper am I. I still need practice with my wife`s camera. The red dot on the razor is finger nail polish to distinguish one side (edge) from the other, i always mark the blade and always line them up so I`ll know how many times I`ve used that edge. I use the same edge 3 days in a row, the flip over for 3 days (6 shaves- 1 blade) wow! @ 13.9 cents per blade, do the math..... el cheapo, methinks.
Love you guys for indulging my nonsense, Bill
