Today's shave - 15min, no stubble at all, but a bit of razor burn and a couple of weepers - think I might not have got the lather quite right, being the first time I've used this cream. Have heard good things, so will keep trying this one out.
Razor: Harris Bros 559 wedge
Brush: Tweezerman reknotted with 22m GN silvertip
SC: Pre de Provence SC
AS: OBR AS & Toner

TZ, and DR Harris Sandalwood! Im jealous! Tim's razors are an exercise in restraint that results in understated elegance. An example of when less is more.

SOTD Oct 17
Prep: Hot Shower + Proraso cream (a must in every shave)
Razor: Wacker Jungmeister 7/8 spanish point in horn scales
Soap: Proraso green tube
Astringent: Thayers
AS: Old Spice
Salient points: Stropped the razor 30 times in SRD red latigo strop (noticed small nick in the strop
) The Wacker performed superbly, no nicks, no bleeders and above all BBS.
The good things in life: Background music Pink Floyd Division Bell...after the shave a glass of Smoking Loom Merlot. Till next time.
