Theme Thursday: Towel Day

  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Brilliance 26mm v23 Fanchurian Badger Knot
  • Razor: Blackland Razors Vector
  • Blade: Feather Artist Club Professional [5]
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - 42 - Soap (Excelsior)
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - 42 - Splash

While Towel Day isn't until Saturday, the theme for today gave me an excuse to use the 42 trifecta.

Rating: 4.5/5

Hawk

  • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
  • Razor: Razorock Hawk V3
  • Blade: Feather Professional

  • Aftershave: Spearhead Shaving Company Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime

u/Wallygator88 is letting me use his Hawk V3. Really a great and intuitive shaver; I immediately found the angle and had a great shave. Thanks Wally! This is the fifth AC safety razor I've used (the other ones being u/Semaj3000's wife's aluminium Hawk V2, u/J33pGuy13's brass Colonial General, u/VisceralWatch's aluminium WR4 and u/Wallygator88's Alumigoose).

The Alumigoose is still my favourite, I think, so I guess I'll have to keep my eyes open for one ot pop up on the 'zaar or eBay. These things are rare, though.

Do you want to try a Blackland Vector?

[-] djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social 4 points 5 months ago

I'd love to, thanks for offering! Would you like to try one of my razors in exchange?

[-] sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social 3 points 5 months ago

Thanks so much, that would be great! I'll PM you.

  • Brush: Elite Razor Neo-resinate 26mm Mother Lode

  • Razor: Koraat 6/8" Full Hollow

  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - 42 - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Lavender - Toner

  • Aftershave: Barrister and Mann - 42 - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I needed to be quick today, but for me that just meant don't daydream and waste time with extra steps. Wonderful shave with the scent that's the answer to "life, the universe, and everything".

  • Brush: Every Ready 400 w/30mm Motherload
  • Razor: Blackland Era - Level 3 SB
  • Blade: Personna Lab Blue (3)
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Petrichor - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Reserve Fern - Aftershave

Superb! As the shave went on I switched to cold water since the weather is warming up. I like cold water shaves a lot.

After a shitty day, I needed a feel-good shave.

Have a good night!
