My version of "Fixd Four" continues, still focusing on zero pressure, proper angle, and training my non dominant (right) hand.  I was pleasantly surprised at how much I could do right-handed, although it seems like a tedious amount of thought is required to get it done.  When the smoke cleared, I was happy to have a skin-friendly DFS.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Monday.
Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: Weber ARC
Blade: Wizamet Polsilver
Brush: 'Papa Chub' (Chubby 3 Manchurian)
Soap: Mike's Natural
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / RazoRock Aftershave Wax

the Weber/Wizamet Polsilver gave a wonderfully smooth, BBS shave... this blade could well end up being my fave for the Weber... 'Papa Chub' is always a pleasure to use.. Simpsons Manchurian, and 2 Band really are in a class of their own.. a fantastic start to my week.



Friday.
Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: Merkur 34C HD
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium
Brush: Rough,No Name Boar
Soap: Lisa's Natural: Orange clove
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / Chatillon Lux: Bon Vivant Post Shave Toner

the Merkur/Super Iridium gave an outstanding shave, with Lisa's Natural (old version) providing the lather... and I must admit, that I'm very tempted to give the new soaps a whirl, after such an impeccable performance.
