A speedy, and slightly groggy shave before my day begins!
Slurry lather.
Glad I had this method in my tool kit, because time was super short.
䷀ Razor and Blade Notes
(Timeless - Stainless Steel .68 - Open Comb ::: Gillette - Nacet - M ‹518 uses›)
Same: First pass has some tugginess to it. But no irritation that lasts longer than a little tuggy stroke. Latter passes feel fine and give a reasonably close shave. 3 quick passes.
Razor and Blade Performance/Comfort Rating: 2 out of 5 (Okay)
䷀ Soap Notes
(Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - White Label)
I just love all the aspects of this scent!
Scent Strength: 6/10, nicely present during shaving.
Lather… This was 4 swirls on a pretty dry puck.
It started off well.
And I ended up with plenty of lather for 3 good passes.
Pass two though, was a little more skimpy than when I have longer load times, but it was still very functional and slick.
super wet stuff was in the brush at the end, and so when I extracted it to use as the third pass of lather, it dripped everywhere.
Same: Comfortable soft tips that do flex some, but that are supported by a base with strong backbone. As with all young boars, I look forward to the tips splitting with more uses and getting softer with use.
During the Shave Feel: Cheeks: Felt blade but comfortable Neck: Felt blade but comfortable After the Shave Closeness: Cheeks: Close Shave Neck: Several hairs are showing some tip length (still a pretty good shave)
