I am in . I have about a month left of my tub of Proraso White , I will stck with my 78 black handled superspeed I have been using exclusively for the past two years and a Wee Scot Brush.
A little too much "bay"?How did I miss this thread....
I did the 1 of everything thing for about 2 weeks a couple months ago. What I found was that using Ogallala Bay Rum daily changes the way it smells on me to an almost "fishy" scent... it's still my favorite AS, but I can't use it more than 2 days in row anymore without catching hints of fish.
I have grandchildren ranging from age 19 to 26. I started out with several razors from the Aunts and Uncles, since in that period, the men in the family were all into electrics, which I wasn't able to keep using. Some time next week will be the sixtieth anniversary of that first shaver torture. It was the afternoon of the first day of high school, and I was 14 years old.I've been thinking about how many of us like to think we shave like grandpa. But I think there's a big difference between us and grandpa--RAD, SAD, SCADD, etc., while grandpa likely had one razor, one soap or cream, one brush, and one aftershave.
In the spirit of gentlemanly restraint, I'm going to really try to shave like grandpa for one month by limiting myself to one of each product. Anyone care to join me?
If you do, share what your single choice will be. I think I'll use my Ever Ready 1912, EJ menthol soap, AoS badger brush, and Clubman aftershave. I'll try to post pics of my choices tonight.
Since I'm new to DE shaving, I figure I'd use this month to focus on technique. Should be a good month!
