Jayaruh's Videos and Hangout

It's Jayaruh from North Cackalacky. I have been absent here for a few years. I thought I'd try posting here again. I use all kinds of shaving tools: single edge, injectors, double edge, straights, and even printed razors. I prefer vintage to modern, but I have a few modern razors, too. I'll jump right in. I usually choose one razor that I use from Monday through Friday, I use the Supply SE on Saturday, and Sundays are for lather catchers. I celebrate Menthol Mondays, Tabac Tuesdays, Williams Wednesdays, and the rest of the week I use one of my many soaps. The only soaps I have replaced are Mitchells Wool Fat, Tabac, and Williams. When I finish a soap, that's it. Oh, one more thing. I only use cold water for my shaves. I use hot water to clean my tools.

This week's razor is my Gillette Double Ring 1905. Today was Tabac Tuesday. Here is the shave.

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #30

Last Friday I received a modified MMOC handle. I had cut it off and sent it to Greg in MI who threaded the handle and also made two threaded inserts that I can use on most razors. Here is the video I made of my first shave using it. I put it on my OC Damaskeene razor. It felt great, and I got a wonderful shave. I used my homemade Proraso stick and my Jayaruh #432 synthetic brush.

GREAT start to your Journal Jim ! Welcome !!!

Hi Jim,

And thanks for the video.  The razor looks very cool.  I don't recall you and I interacting here in the past, but it is nice to see you back.

Hi Jim! Welcome (back) to our corner of the interwebs! I recently spent a week in June with this kit:

The brush is the Jayaruh #431 with a Maggard Razors premium boar. Thank you, Jim, for the wonderful brush!

Welcome Jim! Glad to see you pop in here. Love that you jumped right into the journals.

I believe I will use my Jayaruh brush this evening in celebration.

Thanks Eric. It is always good to see one of my chil'ens doing good work out there. I'm liking it here so far. I see many shavers I know already.

GREAT start to your Journal Jim ! Welcome !!!

Thanks, Dave. Good to be back.

It's Williams Wednesday

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #30
Gillette Double Ring
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Pharoah's Dreamsicle AS

The Williams Mug Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #30 badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with Gillette Double Ring Razor with a Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pharoah's Dreamsicle AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
