Just another head shave

18.01.2022 by Andrew

  • Prep: Hot Shower
  • Prep: Phoenix Shaving – Cube 2.0 Unscented
  • Razor: Razorock – Lupo Aluminium
  • Blade: Merkur Super Platinum
  • Brush: Yaqi – Lucky Dice
  • Lather: Ariana & Evans – Kaizen
  • Post-shave: Proraso – Alum Block

Today I purchased a new razor over at the Paste & Cut forum, so a head shave to celebrate.

With a nice lather of Kaizen, a slightly dull blade, and extra long growth, I struggled cutting down the mop of hair up top. I really need to shave twice a week to keep my mop of hair under control.

Swapped out for a Merkur blade, and what do I do, two large nicks that don’t want to stop bleeding. How silly am I? That’s what I get for rushing my second pass.

I’m still yet to shave my face, but after the itchiness of facial hair and a face mask, means I need to shave to feel comfortable. Maybe tomorrow morning.
