July 23rd, 2025: Shave

  • Brush: Wolf Whiskers - "Gianmaria" w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Gillette Super Adjustable
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (German) (1)
  • Lather: London Razors, Summer Break Soaps - Mountain Laurel - Soap
  • Post Shave: London Razors - Mountain Laurel - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Dove - Men+Care Ultra-Hydra - Cream
  • Fragrance: G. Bellini - Homme

Today is my birthday, so I used my birth-quarter razor. It's not my favorite razor, but it'll do. Setting #3 works well for me, but since I use it so infrequently I figured I'd try setting 9 on the last pass. I don't think it adds any efficiency, but I did get a couple of very minor weepers, so it adds to blade feel. I already knew, but aggressive razors are not for me (straight razors seem to be an exception to this rule).
