Thursday Shower/Shave Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Citrus bar soap Brush- RazoRock Tri-Colored Razor- The Bunny Blade- Schick (1) Soap- Route 66 Barbershop Hop Post Care- Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO and M-Bomb Nivea Sensitive AS balm Wow! What a fantastic shave! This was my first ever injector shave and the Bunny left me dolphin smooth. I used the Mild comb and three passes and I don't know if I've ever had a closer shave. The Route 66 as usual offered up a wonderful, slick and protective lather and The Bunny mowed through two days of growth like it was nothing. The only bad part was one small weeper on the corner of my mouth but if I have a problem, it usually shows up there. I love this razor and I'm looking forward to more shaves with it. The hardest part was getting the area under my nose. I had to use angles that I don't normally use with my R41. The head is big and hard to see around at certain angles and I'm really nitpicking, I'd sell a kidney tomorrow for this razor. Have a great day folks!
I don't know if you go ATG. But it works great under your nose to finish up. Again I know I say this a lot. NO PRESSURE. It works. Tom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Wow, that's a fine example of established technique. Unknown razor, first ever injector shave - very impressive. I have a mustache, so my Achilles heel is my chin and corners of my mouth. Hardly ever do ATG there. After a few shaves with the bunny I was confident enough with the angle and the razor do that area ATG. Haven't looked back since. Like Tom said, no pressure.
My third pass was ATG everywhere but under my nose. I'll have to try that next shave, thanks for the advice!
There's nothing 'wrong' with your approach. Just don't rush it. Get comfortable with the razor and the blade angle by having a few focused shaves where you really work getting the angle down with both long and short strokes. You'll know when you're ready for it.
Sunday Shower/Shave Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Citrus bar soap Brush- RazoRock Tri-Colored Razor- The Bunny Blade- Schick (2) Soap- Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo Post Care- Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO and M-Bomb Nivea Sensitive AS balm Another amazing shave tonight. I've been so busy doing honey-do's around the house I haven't shaved since Thursday. This was my second go with the Bunny and first time using Sterling soaps. First, the Bunny is wonderful. Three passes; WTG, XTG and ATG and I'm BBS everywhere. I could have stopped at the second pass and been left with a DFS but then I would have wasted all that beautiful Stirling lather. This soap lathered so easily, it was slick and protective and it left my face feeling great. The menthol chilled my face wonderfully, this stuff should be required for Phoenix summers. While strong, the menthol didn't make my eyes water or overpower the lovely scent of this soap. I'm officially hooked on Stirling. I went ATG under my nose tonight, much easier than I expected and with a better result than WTG. I can think of nothing so far to make this razor better. I'm going to try another comb next shave to see how it changes. Have a great day folks!
Monday Shower/Shave Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Citrus bar soap Brush- RazoRock Tri-Colored Razor- The Bunny with Notso comb Blade- Schick (3) Soap- Stirling Barbershop Post Care- Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO and M-Bomb Florida Water with M-Bomb It's going to be hard sending this razor down the road. I used the Notso comb tonight and it only took 2 passes for a BBS shave. Very comfortable shave but I did catch a small weeper on my upper lip by going too fast. Other than that,I had zero irritation tonight. This was my first try of the Stirling Barbershop tonight and it's fantastic. Great protection, easy to lather, very slick and a wonderful scent. As I was shaving I imagined Andy sitting down for a haircut from Floyd. I'm looking for a barbershop like that here in Phoenix, if I walk in and it smells like this soap I'll know I've found my place. The Notso comb exposed a little more blade than the Mild and it was more efficient. Of course I still had decent shave going from yesterday so there wasn't much to mow down. I really hope all injectors shave this nice. Have a great day folks!
I'm I Phoenix for the weekend. Dang it's hot, 115 degrees. Supposed to be 117 tomorrow. What's the latest with the Bunny, in Phoenix? Maybe you should try some menthol soaps and aftershave. @ob1page .
Yes but it's a dry heat. The Bunny is being enjoyed, it appears I forgot to post my last shave with it here. I have to go into work for a couple hours this morning then I'll get another try with it. I might try the wild comb today, see how it works on a couple days growth. Menthol helps, if only I could figure out how to utilize it 24/7. Enjoy your stay here, try not to melt.
Sunday Shower/Shave Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Citrus bar soap Brush- RazoRock Tri-Colored Razor- The Bunny with Wild comb Blade- Schick (5) Soap- Route 66 Barbershop Hop Post Care- Crystal Alum Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO and M-Bomb Florida Water with M-Bomb Happy Father's Day! A glorious shave today, I think this one might have been my best ever. I loaded up the Wild comb today to tackle 3 days of growth. The blade went through my beard like a hot knife through butter. Effortless shave, no pulling or tugging, zero blood and the alum and Florida Water were both silent. This is the shave I need to replicate when the Bunny moves on. The Barbershop Hop performed flawlessly, wonderful scent and excellent protection. I took my time today and did three passes. My wife has a wonderful day planned for me. I'm getting ready to have some of the bacon maple biscuits she made yesterday. In about an hour I have a masseuse coming to the hour for an hour deep tissue massage. Then for dinner she's making me her famous ribs and potatoes. I'm a happy man today! This was a perfect shave, absolutely nothing I would change. It's going to be the Wild comb from here on out. I really hope I can find a razor that shaves like the Bunny, it is going to be missed. Have a great day folks!
