2 Passes with a little buffing today for a BBS result.
I took the photo before deciding on face lathering using the little Yaqi today (hence the 3D printed bowl) and it performed brilliantly, holding enough soap for 3 passes+ if needed. The soap scent is very delicate and has hints of Williams Mug shaving soap about it, although the Williams is about a fifth of the price. The DRH does produce a better/easier lather though IMO.
The Blade is just about done, and it has been banked. I just wanted to push a Med Prep to see how many shaves i could get, no other reason, normally it would be changed on #3, i may run these to 5 shaves now.
The Blackbird is quickly becoming a favourite DE, very efficient and i have no problems/Issues when using it. I may even give the OC plate another chance.
A nice post shave leaving me soft , supple and smelling very nice indeed.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All
Good Stuf Iain was the Calypso ok on 8 days growth ?View attachment 54199
Sotd - Sunday the 3rd of May
Prep - facial scrub
razor - ATT Calypso M
blade - Feather (3 and out- they were never known for their longevity)
soap - Wickham - Apricus
brush - Simpsons P8 Phyl best
post - witch hazel
a/s - none used
balm - Wickham - Apricus
scent - Sauvage edp.
Result - all good. Managed to deal with an eight day growth - in my case - a beard by any other name - well done me - face and head shave - I feel much better - and I smell nice. Enjoy your week - whatever that may bring - yours all - I.
No problem at all - one day growth to eight - it does the job for me. Taking off the beard today - I was more concerned about the blade - I could feel the Feather getting blunt on the second pass - you only have to look at them in the wrong way? - but got to the end without incident or claret. - I.Good Stuf Iain was the Calypso ok on 8 days growth ?
Still waiting to hear. Not too long I hope
