Shave for a new week

07.03.2021 by Andrew

  • Prep: Hot Shower
  • Brush: Wahl Traditional Barbers – Badger Brush
  • Razor: Edwin Jagger – DE89
  • Blade: Derby Extra (3 shaves)
  • Lather: Mühle – Aloe Vera – Soap
  • Post Shave: Proraso – Alum Block,
  • Post Shave: Proraso – Eucalyptus & Menthol Refresh Cream

A lovely Sunday evening shave, no kids around, so a good half hour to myself to give myself a DFS.

Three passes today, WTG, XTG and ATG as usual. I felt a few tugs on the final ATG pass, new blade next shave.

After the weak lather last shave, I used warm water to soak my brush this time. Enough lather for at least a fourth pass, possibly even a fifth.

I also placed an order for a new synthetic brush, pre-shave, soap, and aftershave. I’ll reveal when they arrive.
