Shave and a Hair cut,,,,,no longer 2bits.
Started the day with a visit to the barber. As always, got a great cut and conversation. I came home and finished with a nice shower and shave.
Warm Shower, Stephan's rubbed into the whiskers
Warm oil
Dirty Bird Scuttle
Geo. F. Trumper Violet shave cream
Badger Brush
C-Mon Special 5/8 full hollow
Rubbed on the rocks by Rene
SRD P1 strop, 50 felt, 50 leather
Razorock Aluminum
Pinaud Clubman
Vaseline for men
After Rene posted about all those C-Mon razors he was working on, I called him and put the arm on him for one. He was kind enough to send me this one freshly honed. I now understand whey they are sought after. Very clean shave and the edge was wonderful. Rene, thanks buddy!!!

It's only a sample, but I am dissapointed because it don't last on me, it's an imitation of the creed's vetiver, but different, the opening is citrusy, and it's not soapy as Guerlain's vetiver, stay fresh with something like incense lurking in the background. Originally Posted by LegalBeagle

Friday
Dovo Bismarck 6/8
Omega Boar brush
Col. Conk Lime soap (melted into a tupperware container)
Royal Lyme A/S
First shave with the Dovo Bismarck I bought from a fellow SRP member! Awesome shave with a razor that could very well be my straight razor RAD killer (my Merkur Futur did it for me for DE razors).

Thank you for the impressions. I understand where you are coming from with Frederic Maille's Vetiver Extraordinaire. If it weren't so expensive I'd have more than just a decant of it... That said, I can find no fault whatsoever with Lorenzo Villoresi's Vetiver, Sigilli's Athunis, or Profumum's Fumidus... Originally Posted by du212
