Tuesday Morning Shave...

I was a little worried about using this razor for the first time as my injector experience is very limited but it was absolutely brilliant. A very efficient and clean shave and the razor was very manoeuvrable under the nose and around the face. It has a rectangular feel to the body of the razor which makes you almost use less pressure which definitely helps me. Only one pass on my lower right neck where I often get razor burn and job done. Lovely. I can see myself using this very often indeed.

The soap is an odd one. Definitely worth trying if you haven't used the sheep base before from Stirling. It has a 'unique' scent but performance is fabulous.

No need to be worried at all. Thanks Mike!

The PAL injector is certainly one of the more aggressive injector razors but not one to be feared, as you have found out, and it gives a superb shave for me too. As I’m making February the theme of injectors I need to use mine tomorrow- thanks for reminding me.

Tuesday 3rd February

Aleppo soap - Shave pre wash
Stirling Syn 26mm
Cyril Salter Solid soap
Alpha Spirit
Feather Pro ( 4 )
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

This dreary weather does not help me when shaving, as am getting very little natural light in the bathroom and a bulb gone out. However,am finding that The Spirit Razor is excellent as it is very forgiving.

Pre - Droyt's Classic Glycerose Soap
Brush - AP Shave Co UBrush 24mm Boti SHD Fan SMF (Stone Middle Flower) Badger
Soap - Tabac
Razor - EverReady HFT Natural Angle
Blade - GEM PTFE S/S
Post - Cold water Rinse
Balm - Tabac
A/S - Tabac Aftershave Splash

Well, that's the Tabac finished, 133 shaves from the tub, i have to admit, since the ring of death began i really over loaded the brushes. I have another 2 jars (1 of which is the new formula) and i think 1 refill puck and a stick somewhere.
The HFT is a stunner of a razor , i find it mild, efficient and very easy to use.
Enjoy your day all.
