DE SOTD, Saturday Feb3rd 2024

Razor : Yaqi Tile head with a Yaqi brass nickel coated handle- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range. Well built and machined razor head of 316 SS + adequate finish for my shaving needs. I like to use a Kai SS extra wide blade for more blade feel, it seems as I shave more over the years some blade feel is what I enjoy it seems(tame to mid range).
Blade : Kai SS (6) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
Soap : Tabac puck, mild flowery clean scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Coat tails" 24mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice (firmer) splay scrubber + excellent lather generator.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : Dial 10.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=:a17: Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi tile 316 SS razor head with a Kai SS blade.

Have some great shaves!
 
One thing I love about the weekend is being able to just relax and enjoy a good shave. Just jam out to some music and meditate with a razor. Face & head SOTD..

Good shave, although I gave myself a 1cm nick by going towards the cap by accident, first nick like that in years. I guess the fragrance makes this shave baller as David Beckham was a footballer.
