Greetings,
A new shave set up to start the weekend...
Head Shave:
It's near the end of the month for my head shave, recently i had a maiden face shave using the W.S. shave stick and i was curious to see how it would perform using it for a head shave..The verdict?..After my weekly 'No Guard' buzz cut with my wahl hair clippers i had a shower, rubbed the wet shave stick into my head, then with my damp semogue 1470, built up a slick protective lather, which didn't dissipate once applied to my precious swede..The E.R. 1924 cut through my remaining hair follicles with ease, after 2 wtg passes + atg & pick up pass my head was dolphin smooth with no irritation or errors.
Face Shave:
After the wonderful head shave i carried on with my face shave, rubbing the shave stick directly into my stubble, and again building up a wonderful lather, which was enough for the full shave,without having to re-apply the stick to my face between each pass.
Another 3 pass + pick ups BBS shave with no errors to report. The W.S. shave stick, ER razor & Gem PTFE blade worked together superbly. A very comfortable head and face shave..The Ever Ready SE razors are amazingly smooth & effcient, which i highly recommend every traditional wet shaver to shave with one if giving the opportunity to do so...A effortless superb BBS shave.
Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of aloe vera gel.
My head & face are feeling smooth, & smelling devine.
Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen.
