SE SOTD, Thursday April 5th 2024

Razor : Yaqi Romulus SE 316 SSP with a Yaqi Chippendale 316 SSP handle. Mfg 2023> mild to tame mid range depending on blade used (Feather makes 4 different AC blades) or gap shim made. Excellent machining and finish QC + simple clamping system & very nimble to work the face. I like to assemble on a wash cloth because head parts are small. Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Kai Captain Titian mild(4) sharp and smoooth with great longevity.
Soap : Yaqi "The Green", nice natural scented like walking in blossom batch of some sort, very enjoyable with excellent lather qualities. This soap is made in collaboration with Master soap creations S.A & Yaqi for their line of soaps and fragrances.
Brush : Yaqi "Goblin" 24mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Great brush to use for my shave needs.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Yaqi "the green" splash(very addictive beautifully natural scented IMO) with witch hazel+ a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + minimal irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Romulus 316 SSP razor with a Kai Captain titian mild blade.


Have some great shaves!

A Barbershop week-end for me .

*Using the word "Barbe" for "soap" appears to imply that Italian Shaving soaps are popular throughout Italian barbershops. I dunno, never been to Italy. Maybe Razorock has something to do with this.

Another wonderful shave this morning. This Shulton Lime is awesome. I feel very fortunate to have acquired a NOS bottle for a good price a few years ago.
Have a great night all.

Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new eclectic shave set up to start the Weekend.

A great performance from the Yaqi DOC Mellon/Astra SP duo providing me with an acceptable smooth near BBS combined face & head shave. The in-expensive Yaqi Mellon DOC razor head pairs together with the weighty Schmidt R10 handle wonderfully making a well balanced Frankenrazor which feels solid and comfortable to use.

The Astra SP was a joy to use mowing down my face & head stubble with effortless ease. I can't believe that I haven't added them to my DE blade rotation for such a long time

A close efficient face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Ard Al Zafran Dirham Oud EDP to the pulse points.

My face & precious swede are both feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.
