A really fine shave today: total BBS result and a pleasure all the way.
Today I used Chiseled Face’s Pre-shave Gel as directed—rubbing it into my dry (but post-shower) beard and then working the lather into the beard. I’ll continue that for this week, skip it for next week, then another week: the usual test protocol.
My Omega S-10005 worked up a great lather from Dr. Jon’s Hex shaving soap: cedar, cinnamon, orange, and black pepper. It’s an interesting fragrance, and the lather is top-notch.
Three passes using a new Personna Lab Blue blade in the Edwin Jagger razor shown. I liked the fluted black-rubber handle, which provides a comfortable and secure grip. Once again I am impressed by the quality of the razor: a quite comfortable and quite efficient shave. No nicks, no problems, and the razor removed the stubble efficiently and easily. No wonder the Edwin Jagger is so popular (and no wonder so many knockoffs of the design are made: if you can’t beat ’em, copy ’em).
A splash of Barrister & Mann’s Fougère Classique, because I was just reading the Sharpologist 3-part article on fragrances (first part here). It’s a very nice fragrance indeed.
