Bobby B’s Daily 1-Pass (WTG & ATG) Minimalist Shave Report

TODAY’S SHAVE AND CLEANUP:​

Razor for Shaving and Buffing: King C Gillette with WCS 84S handle.

Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum Greece # 78 Shave # 5 and out

Prep: Liquid face and hand soap.

Soap: Noble Otter’s BARRBARR USA

Brush: Noble Otter USA

Bowl: Timeless Blue USA?

After Shave: Noble Otter’s BARRBARR USA

Alum: WCS Alum Stick (Philippines)

Quality: CAS Rating: 8.0 Nicks: 0 Weepers: 2 Stubble: Moderate to Heavy

Comments: A worn-out blade #78 provided today’s barely acceptable shave this morning. I had to do lots of buffing for a smooth face feel. Tomorrow, I will begin using a corked and glass stropped blade #79. With rain storm(s) due tonight and tomorrow morning, I hope to add to my lathering inventory.

Very nice no rush shave this morning. Super close to BBS, but I had a small area with short stubble so no cigar, but I am not upset over that. Splendid shave and all around awesome.

Pre-Shave	Face wash with Cera Ve Face Soap
Soap/Cream	Cella
Brush	Maggards’ 28 mm Synthetic
Bowl	Captains Choice Copper & Old Spice Mug
In Razor	ATT S-1
Blade	PolSilver Super Iridium
Aftershave	Thayers WH & Proraso ASB
Fragrance	Mont Blanc
Rating	10/10
Comments	This was the fourth shave with my ATT S-1 razor and PolSilver Super Iridium blade. T. The four-pass face and two-pass head shave gave me a BBS shave without any nicks or irritation. Today’s brush is the large 28 mm synthetic by Maggards. I prefer large brushes. However, on this shave the soap kept running off to the sides and I had to use my fingers to put the soap back to the tips. Probably too much water. The Cella soap continues to make a nice, slick later. Today is the 29th shave from the block of soap I cut out. It was a perfect BBS shave. Have a great day and weekend, folks.

Blade: Shark Super Stainless (1)
Post shave: Pinaud Clubman

The Twig always delivers a smooth shave, although not always the closest. Today was no exception; a delightful shave with zero irritation, only smooth sailing ...
Such a great design.

Day of rest for my weary scalp…
10/10 for lack of irritation
0/10 for lack of shaving at all
But it was (has been?) easy and smooth so far.
