Return to work

28.01.2023 by Andrew

  • Prep: Hot Splash
  • Razor: Rockwell 6C (4)
  • Blade: Feather Stainless
  • Lather: Ariana & Evans – Kaizen
  • Post-shave: Proraso – Alum Block

After a great time away, and finally returning to reality after 5 weeks away from the office, a shave is definitely in order.

Took the time to have a full face and head shave after a few weeks.

With a lovely head lather using the Kaizen, there are just a couple more shaves left from my tub, the thick growth was taken down with the Feather Blade and the Rockwell razor. I think I’m settled with the blade and razor combination. Loving the weight of the razor, and the smoothness of the blade after a couple of uses.

After the dome, it was onto the face. A little more soap, and continuing on the face lather to mow down a few weeks of growth. The razor cut through the whiskers on the first pass, then another slightly thinner lather for the cross the grain pass.

I never go for a BBS shave with a few weeks growth, so the two passes will be enough to be presentable for a few days, I’ll come back to get that BBS shave with just a few days growth rather than weeks.
