Monday May Eighteenth's Shave Of The Day was good...
PreShave: Stirling's Bonaparte PSO
Lather Gear: Yaqi 24mm Synth Mountain Lake whipped up VITOS Red in Captain's Choice Copper Aquamarine
Razors&Blades: Rolls Razor De-Luxe(?) & Blade 1 buffing WTG... Shavette loaded with Shark Saloon 1 buffing WTG cheeks & neck... 1974 Gillette Super Adjustable loaded with Wilkinson Sword 1 buffing WTG(5) around the maw...
AfterShave Gear: Omega Alum Stick then Stirling Sport PSB
so we learned the Rolls Razor is a evolution of a straight razor... and after several honing passes in it's case and a clean up we decided to try it... the problems with my hands were exaggerated from the small stick/handle... only area the hand/s couldn't try was under the snot rocket... got a little irritation on the beard area and a small red spot on a cheek... a fun experience... and not sure when the Rolls Razor will get another go... got a little feedback from Omega and Stirling moistened us up and has us sniffing good...
Have a Good Start to your week and SOTDs ATGSers...
