Ending the week on an SOTD themed 'Temptations of a red collar worker'.
@Tony'schin should know where this one was stolen from.
White collar worker - Rocnel SE-P
Blue collar worker - 0.485923% of a Dorco Prime
Dog collar - Wee Whiskey Barrel
Collar bone - Abatte y la Mantia Krokos
Button down collar - Abatte y la Mantia Krokos splash
Iron collar - Mrs Satanfriendly
In an iron collar - Me
The task in hand was to shift three days of idleness in three passes and the task given to that shredding monster, the Rocnel half-a-DE-blade SE. If anything was going to shift some wiry bristles and probably half my face at the same time, it was this beast. Tame that beast and the rewards are huge. It just doesn't do pretentious 'that will do' fluffiness, it only does effing close. Or huge amounts of facial damage. Take your pick.
A great start to activities with the most wonderful pairing in the Whiskey Barrel and Krokos and a golden face to boot, just to add to that feel of luxury. For those about to shave 'We salute you'.
The Dorco works wonders in this razor (well at least 0.485923% of one) and the challenge is to get that balance. I have tried a feather in the half-blade Rocnel and it really was one of those 'fuck fuck fuck' moments in life (sod that again), but the Prime manages to sit comfortably in the middle and performs superbly. Care taken and three passes without mishap although XTG is very much on the edge of rationality. But hey, bollocks, everything taken with kid gloves and another one of those extreme and ridiculously close shaves. Happiness by the bin full.
A good rub of some Collagen moisturiser cream and a dousing of the beautifully scented Krokos splash and the world snaps in to shaving focus. Blissful. A great end to a working week and a great start to the next three not working.
And no red collars included
'Are you sure it was that good?'
So let me end on a new Japanese discovery where to be honest I haven't a bloody clue what they are on. But whatever it is I want some.
