SOTD:
Decided to do a night shave Today since my aunt and cousin is visiting for easter, so i didn't want to clog up the bathroom in the morning lol. As usual the piccolo and feather combination performed flawlessly, feathers have absolutely blown me away with their longevity. The malt and myrtle from the gentlemans groom room was absolutely perfect, definitely a soap i recommend everyone tries if they can get their hands on a tub.

Razor: Fatip piccolo
Blade: feather hi-stainless (21)
Soap: the gentlemans groom room malt n myrtle
Brush: dischem synthetic
Aftershave balm: the body shop maca root razor relief

Date:- 21 April 2019

Pre-shave:- Cold Water straight from the tap
Brush:- Edwin Jagger Synth. v2.0 Silvertip Fibre Faux Horn 25/58mm knot
Soap/Cream:- Wholly Kaw ~ King of Bourbon
Razor/Blade:- Karve CB 'C' / Vintage NOS Gillette Stainless #6
Post-shave:- T.N. Dickinson Witch Hazel Astringent mixed into the 240ml bottle with Natural Glycerin (20), Tea Tree Antiseptic (10), Lavender (15) & Peppermint (10 drops)
Fragrance:- Hugo Boss (Original)

It's time to put all my badger and boar brushes away, because, it's nearly mid-Autumn now while we're heading toward Winter, because, they do take a lot longer to dry out properly in colder weather. I've soaked all my badger and boar into 50% vinegar mixed with 50% water to clean out all the soap scrub deep into the knot for about 20 or 30mins, then I'm going to give them a complete shampoo to bring back the natural hair while they're drying out before I put them away ready again for Spring and Summer. I'll be using three different synthetic brushes in my rotation until the end of Winter seasons, which makes a lot easier and they do dry out pretty quick.

Greetings,


(Face & Head Shave.)


A excellent Williams Superlather easter sunday face & head shave...One of the best superlather mixes i've created so far,the tea tree oil gave the lather a wonderful soothing vibrant kick..leaving a wonderful post shave feel to my face & precious swede.


The Ever Ready 1912 (USA) was my first introduction to the wonderful world of Ever Ready SE vintage razors, of which i would never have tried if it wasn't for a fellow member of TSR (UK) who kindly gifted it to me last year, of which i'm eternally grateful .From my first trepidation maiden shave, i was instantly swooned by these vintage ladies, not just the looks, no the smooth efficiency of these razors is remarkably good,as is the audio feedback i've mentioned before i could happily shave with these razors for ever,but like everyone else i like variety.

I never thought in a million years that i would ever do a head shave with a vintage SE razor,or with a DE razor as a matter of fact!, but i now look forward with sheer pleasure to do so with either.

A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Bulldog ~ Original Moisturiser.

My face & head are feeling smooth & smelling devine old school devine.

Enjoy your easter sunday, ladies & gentlemen.
