Sunday 11th August
Prep: Hot shower, aloe Vera soap on beard area
Brush: Omega 98
Soap: Lea Stick grated, bowl lathered (as intended with this brush)
Bowl: SW Suribachi
Razor: EJ89 Barley
Blade: Rainbow (1)
Post: Witch Hazel, Floid Vigoroso
This brush is a monster. I loaded for a bit longer than usual, around a minute in total, then set off to the suribachi (mentioned it earlier as to having not used it in such a long time due to face lathering so whipped it out for another go). I had lather everywhere. As this is a 'professional barbers' brush I reckon he could mix it up in the morning and use the same lather for every shave that day. I only did 2 passes, but had enough on the brush for probably 5, and a bowl full of lather too. The Lea is very very good. I used it the once before as a stick, but the results this way are much better. Lots of slip and slide, and very protective too, not to mention the mountains of the stuff I had. The rainbow blade was another first for me, as I accidentally acquired some and thought I'd test them out. Very nice indeed. I think I have a face made for cheap blades, as they all seem to work really well on me. I'm not complaining though. The scent of the Floid is really nice, I can't describe it as I'm useless at that, but I know I like it :icon_razz:
Nice, smooth, Sunday shave.
