Amakuni’ing 🙌
 
Keeping with my plan to use my mildest razor every other day to reduce buildup of irritation in my head shave.

Proof Whiskey razor
1/2 Personna Blue (1)
Captain’s Choice Verdict sample
Homemade pepper and lime splash
St. James of London Pepper and Lime

Shower shave today. Smooth and easy, very close to BBS and a DFS without adding to irritation as planned.

I do have trouble with this razor (and all razors really) on the soft skin of my neck between the Adam’s Apple and beard. Everything seems to grab there.

Bit of a twilight zone tho morning. I had to wait for my wife to get out of the shower (not long) and seemed everything was behind my usual morning ritual timing, but suddenly I was done and out of the shower about 15 minutes sooner than usual. How did that happen? More time to type this post I guess!

Gillette slim adjustable (H1)1962
Gillette 7 O’clock blade (1x)
Simpson brush, Captains Choice with Proraso blue pre shave soap and Azure Lime aftershave balm.

Needed something smooth this morning. I still had some irritation from Sundays straight razor shave. This fit the bill just fine.

Happy Shaving Gents!
