Saturday Morning:

Hot Shower/Hot Towel

Kent/Altesse Pure Badger
TOBS Rose SC
Harris Pink A/S
TSD AS Milk
Preferred Stock

I attended my buddies wedding today with my wife to be so I figured a nice rose set up would be a sensible idea. The TOBS lathers like a dream, no matter what scent. I'm still having trouble getting the right cream/water ratio though. The Super Adjustable felt a little bit more aggressive today than it did on Thursday. That may have been because of a three shave old blade but we'll never know. Harris Pink, although over priced, is a great match to the TOBS Rose SC. My results today were par for the course. Looking forward to something a little bit better next week perhaps.

I love that SOTD. Very nice.

I needed a quick shave and only wanted the mild cooling effect, I thought Ha, Red, why not.

Do you have a stash or is this your only tube? Have you tried TSD's "Proraso Red"?

I haven't tried TSD's and unfortunately this is my one and only tube of Red.

Shaved without mirror but at the sink to get a grasp what it's like to shave blindly. I've been inspired by a member of a German wet shaving forum. It's turned out to be a very pleasant shave.
