SLOW DOWN! ouch! lol.
What did you learn from your last shave?

- Clubman Lime Sec definitely irritates my face. I get a second burning sensation with it after the alcohol burn fades. I like the scent, but I think this is one I need to avoid from now on.
Happy Fatboy Friday! Happy Clubman Friday!

I learned that I enjoy my shave even more if I take a nice hot cup of tea into the bathroom with me.
I learned that light pressure even makes shaving with a mild razor better!! I was definitely doing it wrong in the beginning!
Chinese wooden handled horsehair brush, La Toja shaving stick, Windrose D-9 Chunky with a Merkur-style head, Indian Gillette 7 O'Clock Green, Alum Block, Williams Expert Aqua Velva.........
That's about as close to minimalist as I can get, living proof of 2 expressions..........

Use NO pressure (especially after you load a Feather blade)!
Head shave is a LOT easier with running water, but too mild to f a razor can offset this and make for slow going.
My more enjoyable razor gives me a less close shave as well. Stinks, doesn't it?
This sort of revelation just keeps coming as you go along. None of us started out doing everything just right. The key is to keep your brain turned on so you can make the mundane ritual a learning experience.
I knew this before, but more a refreshing of the memory on this......
CRSW is a fantastic soap. When properly hydrated it is super slick and post shave feel is superb.
Such a great shave today, now I know why so many load up on their different scents.

Super-Max Super Stainless blades knock spots off the Super-Max Stainless blades
Adding 6 drops of glycerin to either my soap or cream, gives me a wonderful lather, and as always which i tell myself no pressure equals a great shave.
Feather blades are totally unforgiving!
Totally sucks. I just don't like open comb razors.
I still like the smell of Derby lavender cream.
I learned to NOT use the Graham Field blades... WOW! Only thing it cut was my finger getting it out of the wrapper!
Using "Lucky Tiger Liquid Shave Cream" has made me skip the cold water rinse at the end of my shave. The cream acts like a shave balm. My face feels smooth and moisturized.
