Razor: Gillette Tech with Muhle handle

Balm: Chrome Azzaro After Shave Balm

Tried out my new handle with the Tech head. Love the weight and feel of the change. Having used nothing but Dorco blades since I started DE shaving, I IMMEDIATELY knew this was a different blade upon the first stroke across my dome! I could "feel" the blade much ore than the Dorcos. Initially it made me rather tentative but I soon got used to feel. The 7 O'clocks felt so much sharper than the Dorco blades. Since it was a new blade I decided to shave my neck also (which i typically do about 2xs a week). I could REALLY feel the blade on my neck so I took it easy. Ended up with a BSS on the dome and a CCS on my neck. I look forward to trying more blades!

Pre: Maggard razors Pre-Shave Oil - Eucalyptus
Brush: Shea Moisture Shave Boar
Soap: Edwin Jagger Limes & Pomegranate
Razor: Maggard Razors M3
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock
Splash: Shea Moisture Shave Tea Tree Herbal Bump Preventer
Post: Nivea Men Sensitive

Right of the bat I have to say the M3 is more aggressive that my Tech head or my Microtouch One. Much larger blade gap. That being said, I got a really close shave from it. It tweaked me a couple of times (very minor) before I got the angle right. I have to hold it at a slightly different angle that my Tech head. The Maggard pre-shave oil seems to be about the same viscosity as Shave Secret, but smells better. Felt like it did a good job of helping the blade glide. I really liked the smell and the lather of the EJ Limes & Pomegranate. I only used about a thumbnails worth and had enough lather for too passes. Was nice and creamy feeling. Even though I felt a couple of pinches during the shave, there was no blood and ended up a BBS! Thumbs up all the way around this morning

Pre: Maggard razors Pre-Shave Oil - Grapefruit
Brush: Shea Moisture Shave Boar
Soap: Taylor of Old Bond Street Coconut
Razor: Maggard Razors M3
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock
Splash: Shea Moisture Shave Tea Tree Herbal Bump Preventer

Used my M3 again so I can get used to using a more aggressive razor. Another BBS with no blood I really like the scent of Taylor of OBS Coconut croap. And the lather is luxurious! Probably the best lather I've ever had. Again I only used about a thumbnails worth. Also shaved my neck. Probably the closest shave I've ever had on my neck. I never get it BBS, but today was a DF neck S if Ive ever had one there!
