Bowl: Mitsuwa 6" Beige shallow hand thrown Japanese bowl with side rest

Post Shave
Aftershave: Thayer's Witch Hazel Aftershave
Aftershave Talc: Pinaud Clubman Aftershave Talc
Cologne: Saint Charles Shave LLC Bay Rum With a Twist Eau De Toilette

Result: 4.6/5.0 Hmmmm...I seem to be on a Bay Rum kick. Maybe it was the hot looking woman standing next to me in the cafe Friday morning that said I smelled really good. I just had my shower and shave and all the Bay Rum stuff was still fresh. Nope, it's just coincidence. I grabbed the nearest soap in the armoire yesterday and I'm continuing my Ogallala Bay Rum Shave Soap test today. Which brings me to the test results. On Friday, I tested the Ogallala new soap formula and find it made made a huge difference from the old soap formula. Same great scent. Much better lather. However, it still wanted to fade in the bowl after two passes and about 3/4 through a pass on the face. Less water and more soap fixed most of that. But, if you have some Kiss My Face Unscented Shave Cream around then do yourself a favor and squirt some into the bowl with the Ogallala soap. Then stand back and watch the lather explode and stick around for as long as you want. Same great scent and slickness and mounds of very thick cushioned lather. Since this new soap it meltable, I may try what Rick was doing and take a puck of soap and melt it with some KMF unscented mixed in and see what I get. This should be fun.

It is with great sadness that I have to report that as I unpacked my bags at my destination hotel I realized with extreme horror...I forgot to bring my Dopp kitt:eek::eek::eek: Next thing I knew I was on the floor having a keniption accompanied by a few choice expletives. So I took the drive of shame to the nearest Wally World to see about some high end shaving stuff:D Without further delay here is my set up for this week:

Burma Boar brush
Williams Mug soap
Personna Matrix 3 Multi blade...it hurts to type that
Gillette aftershave balm...don't ask

there you have it my friends. The shave was not bad. It will do until Friday.


Raf

[jbcohen]

My Mrs does not use the women's long handle gillette that I have so I use it on my face. Gave me an excellent shave and with a dash of Bay Rum after shave that makes for an excllent morning.

Result: 2.5/5.0 First time I've had to use a styptic in a while. Lousy shave. Too many things going on my mind and was totally distracted. By the time I was done, I had 3 weepers. One required a styptic pencil. I didn't rough my face up too bad, I just fazed out and next thing you know it, blood appearing. I'll heal. On a good note, Taylor of Old Bond Street Avocado Shave Cream is wonderful as usual.

[rick]

how was the shave ??



Shave b4 bed:
Simpsons "Special" brush
Golden Slant + Feather
Hot Towel Treatment at sink
Erasmic shave cream (no way as good as the soap !)
WWR
CWR
Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel Spritz
L'Occitane 100% Shea butter followed by extreme doses of Old Spice Classic AS Splash


Me thinks the Slant + Feather combo aint 1/2 bad if the Feather is a shave or 2 old.
I put a 3 day old Feather in the Slant and the shave was pretty decent

You gotta get a pic of this set up when you can. Sounds like the set up i used a couple months ago when i first entered this Wet Shave World. Although i did go for the Aqua Velva even then.

Jay, is that a chip in the handle of your new scuttle? :eek: :(

Yeah. Unfortunately, courtesy of the USPS, it arrived with the handle broken. :mad::sad023

Fortunately the scuttle itself is in fine shape. Ansgar's is worth every penny.
Best source of warm lather I've found:signs021:love029

What? No Aqua Velva?

:rolleyes:

Not even on my death bed:D

I had to be very careful with the multi blade since I have not used one in a long time. The soap was very good but the brush was rough. At the suggestion of my homeboy I am making a emergency backup kitt to stay in the travel car at all times.

Looks like the Floris No. 89 is popular today. "Dark Side of the Moon" has new meaning. The Japanese launched a Moon probe a couple of weeks ago and the Chinese launched one today. I think India is up next. What's it going to be? Missiles or billboards for the Moon? :D

Same shave setup as yesterday. I'd like to be able to get a good lather from the soap alone but it's to airy. The Taylor's fixes it right up.

I realized today why the right side of my chin is such a problem If I look up to shave, it feels BBS because the whiskers retreat into the skin. When I look back down, they show up again.

All in all a pretty good shave. I like the Derby

Had a late-evening shave today, with my new Feather AC-N Straight & Super Professional Blade.. ::

Took a nice hot shower, but discontinued my prep-routine :confused: --> Guess I figured I would see how things went with just a hot shower, hot water, and brush/soap/cream lathering. Then I thought I would modify my pre-shave routine to suit the feather after taking a gauge of how things went.

The shave lasted a good half-hour, but I took my time to enjoy the lather, spending at least half of that time smothering my face in the Kent BK$.

(1)

I began by Soaking the Kent in hot water as usual, and when I got out of the shower I replaced with fresh hot water and opened up my tub of TSD Bay Rum Shave Cream. Remember, slow motion. Took a deep breath of that pure Bay Rum goodness, to soothe the situation over. Then I collected some of the shave cream onto the brush and began lathering, adding water, lathering more.......directly on the face. Again, taking my time so as to enjoy the whole process. Gotta love the weekend shave :D

(2)

After allowing the TSD Bay Rum lather to sit on the face for a few minutes, all the while listening to Pink Floyd's "Pulse", I then rinsed most of it off with hot water, allowing a small amount of residual to remain.

(3)

I took the brush and half-rinsed the bay rum lather, leaving some, and began scrubbing my TSD Patchouli EO shave soap. The lather exploded into oblivion and not before long I had the perfect thing going. This was then applied to the face for a period of not less than 5 minutes. It was a thing of beauty, and at that time I knew it was time to shave.

(4)

Next I grabbed the Feather AC-N, which I had pre-loaded with a Super-Pro blade, and began a relaxed ritual of total whisker removal. Everything really fell into place. The strokes were effortless, noticeably longer strokes than I take with the DE. The angle, which seemed difficult to obtain with the folding version of the Feather straight......became self evident. Things went very well.

(5)

The path left behind by the Feather straight was a thing of beauty. The shave was a one pass....the whiskers were perfectly softened and were swept away with ease. I did learn that care must be taken, as the upper-lip area and chin were difficult for me. This will get better, and I will master it.......but I did open up some weepers in this area. One will become a scar (on the lower tip of chin).

(6)

After I was finished shaving, I splashed hot water to remove excess lather, then began splashing cold water repeatedly for several minutes. The weeper on the chin was dripping blood and I spent the next 10 minutes fumbling around like a fool, with blood running down my chin...looking for my styptic pencil. Nowhere to be found, probably buried under stacks upon stacks of shave creams and shave soaps.

(7)

Returning to the bathroom, I began nursing the wounds with massive amounts of aqua velva. Cold water, Aqua Velva, Cold water, Aqua Velva. Soon enough the gyser gave out and all was well. Finished with a cold water splash, then an application of Weleda Aftershave Balm.


Finished. Despite the gash on the chin, which will most likely leave a scar......the shave was nothing short of incredible and I would call it a total success. My skin is smoother than ever and I got the ultimate shave we all look for.
