No shave Sunday for me. Enjoy your shaves gents!

Los Angeles Shaving Soap Company - The Black Rose | BSB-Ti HMW | Mongoose B3 w/Triad 316 Stainless Rolling Hex | Kai Captain Titan Mild (2) | Floïd Blue

Recently, I've come very close to selling the Mongoose.  For the price, I just don't use it often, and I really can't say why.  After the last 2 shaves, I can say with confidence I won't ever part with this razor.  Recently having been winged and still only able to use my non-dominant hand, the Mongoose has been a godsend.  The extra territory and easy to find, flawless angle have resulted in spectacular shaves despite my infirmity.  As I have previously stated, shaving the left parietal region of my head is the most awkward area to shave.  The Triad Rolling Hex's deep scallops make it easy to blindly grip the most distal end of the razor and hit that area with flawless BBS and without a single weeper.

For those of you on the fence about paying $22 for 4.5 oz of soap, let The Black Rose from LASSC tip you over.  As a vegan soap, it performs as well as any other soap (tallow or not) in my arsenal.  And the scent?  I'm not even a huge fan of rose scents as they often get old fast, but The Black Rose has enough woody and earthy notes to balance the rose.  My only complaint about LASSC, as has always been the case, is the rather bland labels.  For many, that will make zero difference.

This was yet another outstanding shave courtesy of some very impressive products.
