Sunday Schick shave, September 4th 2022
Razor : Schick adjustable injector M3- MFG 1970-72, excellent adjustable, well designed and built, for regular blades I like to set the aggression range 2-3 but with the Kai Protouch blade you can crank it up to 7-9 no problem because of the guard protection.
Blade : Modified Kai Protouch (4) excellent designed blade, sharp & smoooth with reasonable longevity for a AC blade.
Soap : Razorock "The Dead Sea"- very unique appealing scent, with excellent lather qualities. One of my favorite soaps.
Brush : Yaqi Artic sky 24 mm Silvertip badger, excellent lather generator, heavenly pillow soft tips, nice splay scrubber, excellent lather painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Razorock "The Dead Sea" splash
with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=
Excellent shave with my Schick adjustable injector with a modified Kai Protouch blade.
Have some great shaves!
