366 shaves in 2024
Shave#123 of 366 remaining 243(100%)

Razor:
Muhle Rocca R94
Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharpedge (6)
Brush: Yaqi Moka-Express 2 band
Soap: Tabac
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water
Post Shave: Nivea Hyaluron Gel

I seemed to have lost a day somewhere so I have recalculated my days this year. One more 3017 shave with Tabac and I have found it easier to stick to my 3017 days this year, I have been less likely to stray and use any soap I fancy. The shave was good, not outstanding as it left a little more roughness on my neck than last night, but that may have been because I had to rush it, but it still turned out well.

Thursday 2nd May, shave #123

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat (Tallow)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: Rockwell 6S R6, Ti Handle, Wilkinson #2
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm

I tried R6, but these blades don't seem to smooth out like my usual ones do. Got a good enough near-BBS, but I might go back to R5 next time.
