MWF Morning

Posted in Shaving at 11:12 am by LeisureGuy

A first: I forgot to post my shave of the day. I used Mitchell’s Wool Fat soap after trying a gimmick suggested on one of the shaving boards: soaking the puck in its little ceramic container for some hours. The puck expands and becomes softer and easier to lather. (In fact, I had learned to lather MWF without taking this step, but I’m always up for an experiment.)

I used the Rooney Style 2 Finest, an indefatigable lather-maker, and it produced a great lather as usual. The razor was the Merkur Futur, and I’m not sure what blade was in it, but it did a fine job.

The oil pass was with my own mix, and I got a flawless smooth shave. Aftershave was Blue Floïd and I’m a happy little shaver. :)
