Wednesday morning:

Prep: Noxema Cleansing cream
Bath House Spanish Fig & Nutmeg soap
Semogue 620 brush
Gillette Tech with Razorock Mission handle
Polsilver (1)
Nivea High Endurance A/S balm

My first shave with a Polsilver. The jury is out. Smooth and comfortable but not as close as I would like. We'll see how it goes tomorrow.
Best regards,

-- Wednesday, June 4--

Prep: hot water wash with bath soap
Razor: 1922 Gillette Big Fellow with New Improved head
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock Sharp Edge (yellow) (1)
Brush: My latest creation, Butterscotch Pearl handle with TGN two band F2
Soap: Dapper Dragon
Scuttle: Georgetown Pottery G5 in Hamada glaze (used as brush scuttle)
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers's witch hazel

Image

Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Great shave. The brush today is my latest creation using TGN's F2 knot. Wow! These are some amazingly good knots. They are only a little more expensive than regular TGN finest and are really good. This is another LARGE brush. 28mm/49mm. the brush held way too much lather for my shave and a face wash after alum. I love the abundance of good Dapper Dragon lather. Very enjoyable shave indeed.
