    Me too, but I expect BaM to be unrelenting.

  SOTD 25.03.2024

  • Prep: warm water
  • Razor: RazoRock Gamechanger 0.84 OC; Wilkinson Hydro sensitive
  • Blade: BIC Chrome Platinum; Wilkinson Hydro 3
  • Brush: RazoRock Beehive 28 mm
  • Lather: Noble Otter - Neon Sun
  • Post Shave: Natura Siberica ASB gel

  Finally time to post a proper SOTD again! After my uncomfortable hiatus, I actually had a crammed weekend and today off work but still packed with preparations. I feel way better since returning from Bad Liebenstein…

  2 pass head shave, first with the Gamechanger WTG and a second fast one with the cartridge razor ATG. These Hydro 3 treat me well since I found out that I can simply remove the gel strips with my thumbnail - pluck, and they’re gone for good! I much prefer my soap to be the sole provider of slickness, K THX.

  Neon Sun was awesome after almost no soap usage (excluding Moon’s Union) for six weeks. Great scent, good feeling on the skin and a nice bald head without irritation as the final result. Now I really need to sleep since I have lots of early shifts in the next few days, but it’s good to be back here. 👌🏻

    VERY interesting idea for the goo-strips. I have to try that.

    • DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      It works on these Wilkinson Hydro cartridges, since they use a gel pool that is fixed by some rubber/silicone like material… Normally, I’d use nail scissors to scrape the lubrication strips out, but no need here 😉

  • Brush: Maggard 24mm 2 Band Badger
  • Razor: Personna BBS-0
  • Blade: Personna Lab Blue (5)
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Fougère Classique - Soap
  • Post Shave: Noble Otter - The Night Before - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Balm
  • Fragrance: Noble Otter - Hamami - EdP

  I’d love to see a Noble Otter upset today, but I had to go with my heart.

  Will has been keeping wetshaving wet since the introduction of Excelsior (maybe even before that, but I don’t know), and I’m a big fan of that. Omnibus can take so much water it makes me question the physical world that we live in.
