Second full face - goatee, Straight Razor Shave
Been using DE's for many years and just getting
into Straights, I should have started with Straights
before DE's. I find it much easier and much more controlling
than DE's were. I have in the last two shaves
gotten a closer and more comfortable shave and
not gotten any razor burn or irritation at all.
My skin is already smoother and softer.
A++++ For Straight Razors !!!

Sunday 11/21

Pre-shave mineral oil
MWF Soap
Eterna Boar Brush
Treet Starline TTO loaded with a Treet blue special (shave #2)
Cold water rinse folled by witch hazel and lotion

Squirted a tiny bit of mineral oil onto my palm and rubbed it into my face before soaping up the brush and lathering. Seemed to help prevent irritation quite a bit. The Treet Starline isn't much to look at, but I like the long handle, and it seems to handle really well. I'd say DFS after a couple of passes, but absolutely no irritation whatsoever.
