(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend....It's been some time since i used the Razorock "WTP?!"Orange Sunrise Shaving Soap I find after the soap has been bloomed in tepid tap water for few minutes I'm rewarded with a rich, creamy slick protective lather with a good post shave feel. A superb soap which i will be using more often in the up and coming months...

For my head shave I did the first pass using my 94R and finished off with the remaining second +pick up passes with the Gillette guard for another superb error free head shave.

I've came to realise that the Gillette guard works wonderfully with just 2-days head stubble max any more is a struggle for the razor. The first pass with the 94R let the Gillette guard work effectively on the remaining passes.

I will use the (blade/cartridge) for it's fifth outing & final outing on Tuesday for my second head/dome shave of the week.

Another enjoyable close comfortable face and head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Tommy Hilfiger Bold EdT to the pulse points

My face & precious swede are feeling cool smooth, & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Comments	Starting the weekend off with a different razor and blade: the Mergress XL paired with a Wizamet blade. At one time I had several adjustable razor in my rotation but now this is the only one. Paired with a Wizamet blade this does a good job. Today’s brush is my latest Paladin purchase: the 2023 B&B Contributor brush, Chief model. Like all Paladin brushes, it did an excellent job. A nice, smooth, nick-free shave today. Have a great day and weekend, folks.

Razor : Yaqi Tile 316 SS with a Yaqi Brass nickel coated handle- Mfg 2021>, mild to tame mid range depending on blade used, very easy to find sweet spot angle, machining and finish are accurate and adequate for my shaving needs. The handle is great to hold and has a nice slight taper that I enjoy. Had a close no issue shave this morning.
Blade : Kai SS extra wide(2) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
Soap : Speick stick, nice mild spicy scent with excellent later qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Atlantis" 24mm G4 synthetic, excellent lather generator, luxury like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Closest synthetic to a 2band or 3 band badger I have experienced with my large rotation of brushes.
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 : Fine fresh Vetiver with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my Yaqi Tile razor with a Kai extra wide blade.
