Have a nice week,

It was a "green" day today going after 2 days of growth...

Proraso Green pre-shave
Proraso Green creme
Mühle Silvertip 22mm
1918 J-code Gillette 102
Personna red
Annayaka shave balm

Great BBS, but I did get a tad lazy under the chin for which I was rewarded with a bite. That OC demands respect.

Happy shaving, Gentlemen.

Bela...that's an absolutely beautiful SE! Congratulations on owning a piece of art as well as an incredible razor.

Hi Friends,

today i had my "Wellness-shave". I started with a hot shower (using Mike´s Rose & Cedarwood Bathsoap :001_wub:) and than i started shaving:

1. Prep: Floid Sandolor Preshave Gel
2. Soap: Mitchell´s Wool Fat
3. Razor: 1930 Gillette New (Two Tone)
4. Blade: Wilkinson Sword
5. Brush: Nightdivers Custom 24mm 2-band"Honeystick"
6. Aftershave: Block Osma



Great shave. First shave with an Open Comb Razor ever (the R41 isn´t a full Open Comb for me) and i´m hooked...No problems for the blade to cut my whiskers.Gentle and really smooth.I will use this razor for the next shaves too.I have the feeling that open comb razors are better for me,because it seems,that my whiskers are tougher than i thought before...And then is an open comb ideal.Wow!!!Even the areas i had to do a little more touch ups with closed comb razors are clean now. I´m really impressed.


Have a great Time.
Greetings
Thorsten

This shaving soap is really refreshing, with a mentol scent, which is something that awakes you very quickly these days. I had it in a stick form, but I have not put it on an ikea bowl (better for lather).


The Gillette is a really good razor. I have started with the dial at number 3, and then switched to number 5 during the last pass. The result, a very close shave.


Bye!
