What's new

365 shaves in 2021.

Saturday 24th July, shave #205.

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: MWF
Brush: Men-U boar
Razor: GC.68 SB, Wizamet SI #1
Post-shave: Nivea 2-Phase Lotion.

I don't know if it was the fresh Wizamet or just coincidence, but got a near-perfect result. BBS face with no post-shave sting. (If you've done any harm, the 2-phase lets you know.)

I don't set out to get a BBS neck, but it's about as smooth as I've ever managed, with no irritation.

Maybe the 365 shaves challenge is starting to pay off.

Brush: Yaqi Tuxedo knot 24mm synthetic :001_wub: , one of my favorites, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, great scrubber and excellent lather painter. Hard to beat and got me interested in Yaqi this brush did.

Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
