William Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Bunny B-400 by Tom
TNNSER V1 by Tom
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Hendrick's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC


The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with the Bunny B-400 Badger brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the TNNSER V1 Razor by Tom and Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Hendrick's Witch Hazel and then Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Well, I'm not convinced I really like these Feather blades.  First use in the VC1 was adequate.  Not the worst shave and not the greatest.  All other aspects were fine but my new little no-name vintage boar brush needs some breaking in.  Probably needed a longer soak.

Saturday Morning Salutation

Same Razor as yesterday but replaced the Feather with a GEM PTFE - what a difference !!  I also soaked the brush longer.  It was a bit better but going to need a long break in.  I don't think it was ever used.  The tips need to split and get soft.  Nice to have a tube of Proraso Red back in the rotation.
