A new shave set up to start the weekend.....Maiden shave with the Provision Supply V2 razor ...The verdict?.... After my recent introduction with the Schick G type injector razor i was swooned by how much of a wonderful close comfortable shave it gave then decided to purchase another one to my humble SE razor collection...Anyway I was all set to go with the Parker Adj Injector, then i came across the Provision Supply V2, ..However, i have also made a purchase for the Parker Injector which will be arriving next week and i look forward to trying it out in my future shaves.
As i have never shaven with a fully stainless steel razor before i wasn't sure what to expect...The Build & quality standard of the Supply is the best razor i have purchased to date...The weight is much heavier than the Schick G type injector which is something i like in a razor. However it's not quite as easy to manoeuvre as the Schick injector but i will adjust to the extra weight in future shaves. The handle doesn't feel slippery, despite being smooth it feels grippy and good to hold and make's the razor feel well balanced, and the added bonus i like about the supply razor is you can disassemble to clean it, and you don't need a injector key to change the blade like you do with most other injector razors.
I started off with the classic (**) base plate to familiarise myself with the razor ,which has a nice balance of efficiency & smoothness.....I will try out the other plates in future shaves, but for now the classic plate feels good... Like the Schick G type i found it easy to find the angle and after the first few strokes i felt comfortable shaving with the razor. The Personna PTFE blade paired together wonderfully making a smooth efficient duo.
After my combined xtg/atg + pick up pass my face felt silk smooth with no cuts or irritation.
An effortless close comfortable near BBS 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel.
My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.
