This was as good a shave as I could want on my 40th birthday. Every part of it was great. Brush awesome, lather outstanding, blade/razor combo a perfect match. The lightest touch and it was just the most pleasant shave. 10/10
WFSR Shave 2:
Well, I thought yesterday's shave was great, but today's was better still. Rather than me training with the razor, it's like the razor's training me (in a very nice and easy way). If my next shave is as good as this one it's definitely going to the Number One spot on my podium (and will be well deserving of its name).
S.O.T.D - Friday, October 30, 2020 Pre-shave:- RazoRock Charcoal Lime PreShave Soap Bowl/Scuttle:- Roger Quintero 3D Printed Brush:- PAA Atomic Rocket Soap/Cream:- PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum Razor/Blade:- Shick Adjustable Injector (M1)/Schick (3) Post:- RazoRock Ultimate Alum / Thayers Cucumber WH / PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum Star Jelly After-shave:- PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum
Day 3 with the injector, so far I am very happy with the performance and comfort level of this razor, the blade still feels as good as day 1, also my 3rd day with PAA products that I have not used in a while.
Prep: Noxzema
Soap: Zingari Man The Magician
Brush: Simpson 57 Best Badger
Razor: Yaqi Beast on RazoRock radio knob handle
Blade: Astra SP (#4)
Post: Alum followed by hyaluronic acid followed by Lucky Tiger balm followed by My Nik is Sealed
Not a good shave and I put the blame solely on the lather, which I just could not get right. That makes something like 6 attempts with Zingari samples and none have been good and some downright bad. I know some people love it, but it appears this soap is not for me. Good scent on this one, though!

Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix

Soap is among the top for quality performance. Consistently giving thick creamy and slick lather.
Shave with razor paired with blade was very smooth and comfortable for 3passes for a bbs to dfs result. 2 weepers on neck for trying different angle, hahaha...Good post & aftershave too. Rating 9/10

(Halloween Face & Head Shave.)
Greetings,
(German DE razor week.)
Since i was kid, Halloween night has always been something i've looked forward to it's hard to imagine around the world this evening that parents, grandparents friends neighbours won't be having the usual mass visiting Trick-orTreating presence from Wolverines, Michael Myers, Witches, Werewolfs, Mother-In Laws, Zombies, Vampires, Frankensteins, Mummys & Daddys, Beatlejuices, Batmans, Batwomen, Jokers, Freddy Kruegers,Chuckys,Jason Voorhees knocking on the door queuing up for the boat load of goodies people normally have for them around the world to mark this 'spooky Halloween Trick-or Treating event'.
It's extremely hard explaining to some children about this Covid-19 pandemic madness. 'Ignorance is bliss for them'. Enough said.
I've modified the normal Trick-or Treating activities for the evening and will be leaving some spooky goodies near the front door for the usual Halloween suspects to share & enjoy.
Back to the shave....Another eclectic shave set up to start the weekend....The R41/GWS duo performed with sheer smoothness, mowing through my face & head stubble effortlessly....what a wonderful efficient razor the R41 is now that i have vastly improved my technique & gained my shaving confidence when shaving this assertive semi-open comb Fräulein.
A very enjoyable face & head shave with no errors to report.
Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of L'OREAL ~ Soothing Birch Sap PSB.
My face and precious swede are feeling super smooth and smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the spooky Halloween weekend ladies & gentlemen.
Happy Halloween Everybody!!!!
Just a Tobacco Shave with WSP and Nurlog/Yuppy from Turkey.
This is my first go with WSP. I can say that the Formula T ain't bad.
