Shaves of the Week


Saturday.
Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: ‘The Rock' (Rockwell 6S – #3)
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock S/P Black
Brush: 'The Duke' (Duke 3 Best)
Soap: Summer Break Soaps: History 101
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / Chatillon Lux: Santal Auster Post-Shave Salve
Fragrance: D.S. & Durga Mississippi Medicine

History 101... I had high expectations for this, and it did not disappoint.. now, for me, the Black Ninja is not a blade to be trifled with, and this Summer Break Soap took everything in its stride... lush, slick, and protective, in fact, I made extra passes just for the fun of it.. can't say fairer than that, eh?



Tuesday.
Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: Weber ARC
Blade: Wizamet Polsilver
Brush: 'El Monstruo' (Romera Manchurian 30/50 Fan)
Soap: Soap Smooth: Sandalwood Ten
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / RazoRock Aftershave Wax

a very satisfying shave, despite some very minor irritation... could be that the Wizamet is on the wane, but another shave with a different soap will decide it..
