SAFETY Razor Shave of the Day (SOTD)
warhawk:
Last night's relaxing shave:
Face (sink)
Razor: Merkur Futur (setting at #3)
Blade: Gillette 7 o clock black
Brush: Semogue 620
Soap: Mike's Natural Soap (lemongrass)
Head (shower)
Razor: Weber DLC
Blade: Gillette 7 o clock black
Brush: Semogue 620
Soap: Mike's Natural Soap
Ended it with an ice cube rub and a splash of Osage Rub.
Revisited the Gillette 7 o clock blacks. This is a great blade that is sharp and smooth. The only negative is the high price but it's definitely a must try blade. So far... the Mike's Natural Soap products are out performing my other soaps and creams. I'm really liking this product. I highly recommend this product. It lathers like yogurt, gives great glide, and great cushion. Also... leaves your skin silky smooth.

I went back to a Derby blade for last night's shave. OUTSTANDING shave with the Derby!
I used the Gabel's Lilac Vegetal after shave post shave. I love this tuff but I found one problem with it. Just after applying it I went ooutside for a few minutes and then came back into the house. Well apparently the scent of the vegetal attracted a handful of yellow jackets that proceeded to follow me into the house (Unbeknownst to me). Then I got stung on the back of the arm... then one stung me on my wrist.... and two others were after me very aggressively. I killed all four of them and scooped their nasty little carcasses into the trash can.
Can't a regular guy enjoy even the simple things in life without being attacked??!! ;) ;D

Well I bounced back from my worst shave ever to have one of my best shaves ever! I took about 4 days off from shaving to let my nicks fully recover, and I didn't stray from my normal routine this time. I made sure to take as much time as needed (probably 25 minutes including shower). This shave was so smooth I barely needed a second ATG pass on my head! The way I do it is going WTG on the face, then ATG on the head, rinse and re-lather, then go ATG on the face, then ATG again on the head, and re-lather and shave as necessary. I had a superb shave today!

@MikeKoz13: Mike.... sorry about the yellow jackets. I think I will stay away from that after shave.
