Another dramafree BBS shave today, 2 passes and some minor buffing.
Isn't the B'bird one of the most attractive modern shavers? To my eyes, she definitely is.

Have some great shave, y'all!

Tonight's shave was simple, quick and good. Two passes to a near BBS: WTG everywhere for the first pass, then XTG on the face and ATG on the neck to finish. Alum was silent; no post shave products used because they aren't really needed with the lanolin-rich MWF soap.

The mixed boar/badger knot is a nice option, combining the softness of badger with the stiffness of boar.

Greetings,

Early Morning Shave,

A very eclectic shave set up that gelled together very nicely to finish my shaving week off in style.

A great performance from the Haslinger Schafmilch...My mature skin loves shaving soap that contains lanolin the slickness and post shave feel this soap delivers is superb...Wonderful stuff!

The Parker InjRzr continued to perform wonderfully throughout the week...My fondness for this razor has rapidly grown with each outing....A wonderful shaving tool.

An enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Phoenix&Beau Spitfire Splash
Nice enough soap with a light pleasant scent. The lather is really slick too...
The shave with this razor paired with the well-used blade was amazingly good. Unbelievably, the blade is still crisply keen, smooth, and comfortable for all 3passes without any issues resulting in a dfs++ finish. The aftershave kinda matches the soap & smells wonderfully mechanical...hahaha!
