Re: One pass shave

Every once in a while I do a one pass shave to give my skin a rest. I can get by with a two pass for work and social occasions. My skin sometimes just needs a break!

Re: The razors you like/use the most?

I really enjoy rotating through the following:

Futur
Muhle R89 Grande
Edwin Jagger DE 89L
Weber ARC
Progress

It is strange how I sometimes wake up wanting to use a specific razor!

Re: Other Brands of Scrubby Brushes Besides Simpson?

I have Simpson brushes including a Chubby 2, Colonel X2L, and the Wee Scott, and am very happy with these. The Chubby is a recent purchase, and have only used it about 4 times. Wow that thing can make some lather! I was wondering what other makes are similar to Simpson as far as being very densely ...

I dislike when I am really enjoying my shave and I look at the clock only to see that I am out of time. Now it's a quick rush to rinse, splash and get to work!

I'm a big fan of my Simpson Colonel X2L with MWF. The brush is scrubby, picks up soaps with ease, and face lathers very efficiently.

I got into wet shaving after a friend told me I could eliminate ingrown hairs by using a brush, traditional lather, and a DE razor. I cleared up ingrowns on my ...
