Thank you for the kind words Steve, I am on another cloud to be back in the swing of things. Wickhams is firmly set to be around for a very long time, I have some very exciting things lined up.Soap:- Wickhams 1912
Brush:- Whipped Dog 24mm Silvertip
Razor:- English Ever Ready 1912 SE
Blade:- GEM SE
Post Shave:- Givenchy Gentleman EDT
Wickham's Spice Trade was the first artisan soap that I purchased shortly after starting DE shaving, since then I have managed to procure a number of other Wickham's soaps, all of which I enjoy immensely. They all lather really easily and the scents are wonderful. I was somewhat disappointed to say the least when shortly after my initiation to this way of shaving, Wickham's soap virtually disappeared from the market. I cant tell you how please I was to hear that Darron was bringing out a new range and this 1912 hard soap is in a different league, lather-ability, slickness, cushion, stability, post shave and scent are all top draw.
Where's everyone getting their Wickham 1912 soap from?
No photo, but my first decent, care taken shave in a long while!
EJ89 head on custom handle made by a guy on here a while back who's name escapes me. Apologies, but its a top handle! Paired with a fresh Rapira blade.
Big ol' omega barbershop brush.
Cella. Forgot how good this stuff is. Expected it to have gone funny, but it still works great after 3 years!
Finished off with Professor Blighty pear shaving tonic. Two passes, wtg and atg. Beautiful.
Giving it classy on my Birthday. F**k I'm 39!
Wickham 1912 Unscented
EJ 25mm Synthetic
Mongoose B3 / Feather Super (4)
First shave with Wickham 1912 Unscented. Loaded brush for 15secs and proceeded to whip up enough lather for at least 4 passes! Superlative glide and cushion, excellent post-shave feel and extra skin-friendly formulation. A real winner from Darron at Wickham Soap Co.
Thanks @rowlersHappy birthday!
I'm 39 in a fortnight too!
