I hope you don't get tired of hearing this, celestino but that photo-and those colors-are just stunning!

Thank you for your kind words, Michael.

Old School Sunday

I went with an old school shave today. I recently heard someone say that they bloom Williams Mug overnight to make it easier lather. It seems to have done the trick. It still took a while and I basically lathered it on the puck, but it was a lot thicker and incredibly slick even though it did dissipate and I had to reload between passes. This was the best shave yet with this soap.

Sunday, June 25, 2017 Shave of the Day:

Razor  |  Timeless Open-Comb (0.95mm) / Astra SP

Razor: Gillette Flair Tip (A3) (1955)
Blade: Wilkinson (1)
Brush: WDC-8 w/APShave Co.Cashmere

For me the Flare Tip is an unsung hero of the Vintage Gillette razors line.
