Shave of the Day Thread - 2018

[alfredus]

Pre-Shave: SebaMed, cold water
Razor: RazoRock Stealth Slant V1
Blade: Voskhod(1)
Brush: Paladin Lotus
Lather: Mystic Water Jeff's Lavender
Post-Shave: Alum, Stirling Bay Laurel Witch Hazel, Australian Emu Oil​

Great to be back home and I was very much looking forward to a badger shave - the Paladin certainly delivered on all fronts and paired with Mystic Water resulted in a fantastic lather.

I was also very much looking forward to my razor bling, but 4 days worth of growth just screamed slant and the Stealth Slant is just such a wonderfully smooth and efficient razor.



**I hope you all have a relaxing Sunday**

Brush: PAA Atomic Rocket
Razor: PAA BOCS
Blade: MingShi
Pre: PAA CaD
Soap: PAA CaD
Post: Shower / Alum + Proraso White Balm

A very meh shave today, let down by my poor blade selection and the BCOS leaving me with razor rash and the odd weeper A real shame as I really love the soap and the brush over my Omega and Proraso I've got to learn to ditch a blade if it doesn't work as it easily spoils what should be an enjoyable experience. Happy remainder to your weekend guys and happy shaves

Love the mamba. Minimal blade feel while being efficient.

You assume far too much oh Speedy one !!!!

Well according to your kitty avatar clearly tells me you still haven't comb your bloody hairy for nearly 2 years since I've been an active member of P&C

Red Lead / Platypus / Feather AC SS + Feather Pro 10 / Reserve Spice

Still on the same AC Pro blade. Thought I would re visit the straight style shavette. Its so light, feels like a toy compared to the real straights. But does the job very nicely.

Lovely matching scent from the Red Lead and Reserve Spice.

Enjoy your Sunday guys ​

Yeah spoiled the shave with the razor/blade selection. Had a few days growth and thought, why not a slant or OC. Going with the PAA theme I thought the BCOS would work but sadly not Next shave should be exciting as I'm expecting the Timeless Bronze to arrive anyday now. Might try a Feather blade or something similar?

Trust me after this morning's shave I will never try another MingShi or QShave blade ever again!

Are you sure? I have a pack of unopened Qshave blades that I would be willing to give you, totally free!

It's tempting but my face is still getting over the MigShi blade so NO thanks
