Wednesday, April 7, 2021 - Shave of the Day

Prep  ||  Cantu Pre-Shave Scrub

Brush  ||  Paladin Chief

Soap  ||  eleven Apollo

Razor  ||  Stirling Stainless / Wizamet Super Iridium (3)

A/S  ||  Stirling Executive Man

Growth  ||  33.0 Hours

This afternoon I received a Gillette New (long? short?) that I picked up via BST. I Wanted it for when I use the old spice mug and vintage Badger brush to complete the 'old school shave'.

I tossed a Personna Comfort Coated blade in it and went to town. What a great shave, and surprisingly smooth for an OC razor (I usually have troubles with them). Three passes and nearly no cleanup to a nice clean shave.

As with most of my shaves these days I began and ended with Stirling Glacial Post Shave Balm.

Have a good evening DFS!

Very cool photos, sir! And I LOVE your logo/watermark. You've probably had it a long time, but I'm just now noticing it.
