Does a neck shave with an opening E Schick
count as a shave? If so, just finished…lol!!

What I love about the E is that it opens for cleaning.

It counts in my book. I keep a beard so my shaves are always just neck below the beard line and a little cleanup up on my cheeks to keep the upper edge of the beard clean.

Looks like Schick Repeating Razor Sunday is throwing down on Lather Catcher Sunday (says Bryan as he closes his laptop and heads off to shave)!

Lather Catcher Sunday!
Cold Water Shave
Pre: Neutrogena Soap Face Wash, Noxzema Cream as PreShave
Razor: Gem Junior Bar Lather Catcher
Blade: Gem SS PFTE (4)
Brush: Vulfix 374 Super Badger
Soap: Tabac
Post: Osma Alum Block, Thayers Unscented Witch Hazel, Skin Bracer, Nivea Sensitive Cooling Balm

First use of my new most eye-catching razor. IMO, the Gem Junior Bar lives up to its reputation as a smooth shaver that is efficient as well. It has a much lighter feel in my hand compared to yesterday's Damaskeene, which in the end was not an issue. A successful two and a half pass shave with bowl-lathered "buttercream" Tabac. I love that smell and such a smooth, creamy lather. I'm really finding the SE blade is much better at mowing through my thick stubble, particularly a trouble spot on the sides of my chin just below the mustache. Thanks to GAW9576 for providing some pre-shave advice on blade loading! Bring on Menthol Micromatic Monday Twelvefret! Cool
