Thread: Sun - February 03th - Sat February 09th

Happy Super Bowl Sunday y'all! Today I shaved with a Sheffield razor that wasn't quite dialed in last time, and today's shave confirmed I need to send it to a pro to put a proper edge on it. I lack the skill (and the stones) to do it, so off to a pro it goes.

Prep - hot shower
Soap - the Body Shop Maca root cream
Brush - Simpson Persian Jar 2, best
Razor - Tally Ho, 7/8
Post - cold water, styptic pencil, and Kiehl's lotion
EDT - Hermes Voyage



Have a great day y'all!

Sunday evening
Hot water prep
Iwasaki Kamisori - TOBS Lavender sc - Barbershop badger brush - a small glass of Shochu - cold water splash - Thayer's witch hazel - L'Oreal asb - D.R. Harris Arlington as

Simply had to get back to the Iwasaki to gain more experience in the moves with this blade. The angle of shaving is really important, that's what I already found.
BBS in two with a nice horizontal nic from the squeek of my daughters as they were taking a bath in the background. I like this blade very much. It's growing on me. Somebody stop this RAD-thing please...

Sunday shave.

Got this razor NOS and only used it twice. Needed to be honed up since the edge was factory. I was able o get a nice edge which resulted in a nice shave.

(1st pass good. Last 3 while workably protective and shave functional became treacherously and progressively more runny.)

No AS or lotions so the skin can breath and have its own natural PH for a day.
