    Hello everyone.

    This picture is dedicated to @PickledNorthern ;) My second Route 66 shave this month:


    rdtmit.jpg

    - Route 66 "Ghost Town"
    - Jayaruh #58
    - Schick Adjustable at 6
    - Chick blade
    - Lucky Tiger AS


    This setup was pretty similar to the last shave - with the exception of the brush and the razor setting.

    When two very user friendly components work together - like in this case the soap and the brush - the result is just fantastic. Creamy lather in abundance ... and as I stated in my previous post: you can fine tune the texture to your liking pretty easily. I don't think you can use too much water with this soap. Is there some sort of breaking point? Have to check that next time :happy088:
    For the first time in what appears to be an eternity I shaved my whole face today. The last few years I used to wear either some sort of circle beard or a goatee. Not any more - feels kind of weird atm :shocked003: After two passes with the chick (setting 6 is still rather mild btw) my face is almost BBS. The shave was pretty much irritation-free, with the exception of 2 or 3 tiny bloodspots on my chin (micro-fractures in the hull, as B'Elanna Torres would call it).

    Have a great day!

    Blade
    : Chinese Schick
    Razor: Personna injector
    Brush: Jayaruh #60 synthetic
    Lather: Route 66 Cavendish
    Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Ozark Mountain Trail aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, XTG

    Terrific, shiny, well-hydrated lather this morning with Cavendish. Today's lather was a good bit more wet that the previous one a couple of days ago. I used a touch too much water in the beginning, but was able to work it in and create a really effective lather. It was a bit runny, but still worked great. Nice scent, great cushion and slickness.

    First use with the Personna injector and I really enjoyed it. Nice shave - I hope the same for you guys. Have a great day!
