3rd Shave with Bunny:
(Sorry for the shit photo...)
MWF
RazorRock Barber Plissoft
Bunny NOTSO
Chinese Schick [3]
La Toja AS
Diesel OTB EDT
Superdrug Moisturiser.
Another superb shave with the Bunny. I think the NOTSO comb is the one for me, however it is still too aggressive for a comfortable ATG pass on the neck for me. I also find it difficult to shave ATG around the chin area. However, 2 passes is more than good enough for daily shaves and I'd only go ATG occasionally.
How long are these Chinese Schick blades good for? It certainly still feels sharp... I'll likely try another shave before I move onto a NOS Twin blade.
Are you selling one by any chance?CRSW are top soaps! Have you thought about getting another plate for the ATT Ross?
reminds me when I was mulling over getting a badger brush, expensive but kind of makes the shave ever so more perfect what a difference indeed.
Prep - Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam
Razor - Ever Ready 1912 (Shimmed)
Blade - Personna GEM SE Stainless (#2)
Brush - Shavemac Raptor 26/52 DO1 3 Band Bulb
Soap - Wickham's Super Smooth Club Cola
After - Frozen towel / Cien Ice A/S
Result - Dolphin Smooth
It's rare that perfection can be improved upon, so I'm slightly hesitant when anyone suggests a method of doing such. This actually happened twice in my shave this afternoon.
The 1912 is already as close to the perfect shave as is, but simply fitting this shim does something akin to witchcraft - a more aggressive, yet a smoother shave! What is this madness??!!
The second thing event was like unlocking some ancient code. The magic ingredient? A badger! In two years of traditional shaving, I've only used synthetic and boar brushes. Badger brushes are a complicated affair and I'd only resisted purely through frustration. The prospect of spending large sums of money on something I could viably detest, filled me will disdain. An opportunity presented itself recently and I left the decision in the hands of experts. Oh am I glad I did! Wickham's was already in my top three soaps but what I saw this brush do to it today, well those with high end brushes will already know. The resultant lather was unlike any other I had ever conjured up before. I could never have imagined the difference this brush could make.
Today was a game changer!
