SOS: January 2019

Thanks Doug. @jtspartan did a fantastic job on these brushes.

 

Last shave for me of Williams Wednesday! It went great! The vintage was what I used today for the final shave!
Gonna be a long day at work, so at least I got a great shave!

This is the lather that's left over after 3 passes and touch-up... Almost makes me sad to waste it lol. Have a great Friday!

Friday morning’s action:

Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Goodfella/new 7AM
Stirling Frozen Tundra SS
Prep ASB
Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
Givenchy Gentleman EdT

This shave was like menthol Paradise as well as mega-BBS. After struggling with a Derby blade on its fourth use yesterday I threw away the damned thing and grabbed this new 7 AM and what a difference. Two swift, effortless passes and I was done. The Frozen Tundra soap is awesome - the minty/earthy scent is beautiful, the lather whipped up so rich as well as slick, and the menthol pummeled my face hard but it felt wonderful. The Prep and Penguin were a perfect finish!

Have a great weekend!

 

Excellent shave today.
Hot Water wash
Whipped Dog deep set silvertip
Soap Commander Respect
Gillette pre-war tech/ikon oss handle

No pic, everything is commonly seen. But trust me, the results feel wonderful.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

Nice photo Jeff. Enjoy your weekend.

 

Thanks so much my friend!

Same to you as well!

Good photo with a beauty of a brush Brian.

 

Thank you! Truth be told, the years went by in a flash. The nice part is we're still best friends. She's the saint however.

 

Thank you Doug. I like my Jayaruh brushes.

 

sink of cool water
hot soaked salsa bowl and tri-city brush
a bit of vasmol cream
lavender soap
plastic shavette w/2 use gillette platinum
luke warm rinse followed by cool water rinse
denim black a/s

2 passes n-s and diagonal
1 tiny nick on the first pass that resulted in a dot of red that disappeared when I relathered and never reappeared.No sting when the a/s was applied.I thought the vasmol would add a bit of slickness to the lavender soap and the soap would add a bit of fragrance to the cream.well the cream added the slickness and overpowered the soap fragrance with its laundry detergent smell.I'll have to try more soap loaded on the brush next time. ended up with a nice shave .The gillette blade seems to be a bit better in my shavette than my de.The Denim a/s left my face soft and smelling nice without being loud.

 

Gem Damaskeene razor
Gem Stainless blade
WD Silver Tip brush
Williams SS (modern)
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Barbasol Brisk A/S w/added menthol

Another nice shave till the blade died, just stop cutting the stubble. Got 1 1/2 passes done and had to finish with another razor/blade. All ended well though and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

 

love the dr jons and clubman..

 

lovely pic..
