Decided to try out a straight razor type safety razor today... love it so much decided to switch. This stanrd model is nice but figured id get the nicer adjustable one.
Also just upgraded to the super sharp blade as opposed to the normal mild blades people use... this will be fun, or painful ;)
@freemo feather or kai blades 😅 ? I hope you have any splash at hand to treat the wounds afterward, if it is your first try with this one 😜
@certainlytwice I actually thought i did a great job, felt smooth and everything... then i notice im bleeding :)
These are from Vikings Blade, ill try the ones you suggest
@freemo they are the sharpest in the world so proceed with great care 😇 if you are into #traditionalshave and need a good relief afterward, have a look at Le Père Lucien aftershaves. Only natural and high quality ingredients and oils. No synthetic compounds, 100 % biodegradable. Regarding the quality the price is amazing. And I do not work for them 😂
I never really bothered with aftershave.. not really sure what the functional purpose is once the shaving is done?
@freemo And for this one the smell is great too :) even if one of my fav regarding the scent is their Bay Rum, infused with untreated fresh rose petals from their garden. 😍 2 / 2
@certainlytwice I usually dont like cologne but if its natural sents and doesnt really resemble cologne then I may like it. But im very picky with smells.. would have to be natural and something earthy like cedar smell... anything too smelly like cologne i wouldnt really like.
@freemo for the "traditionnel" it smells like wild herbs you could add on a slice of grilled meat 😋
@certainlytwice I could live with that :)
@freemo if you mean traditional cologne like 4711 or farina1709 it never last for a long time, like 2 hours. But the flavors are more citrus and nerouli (sweet). Regatding the AS the scent is generally ligth and do not last for a long time. If you like orange scent I do have Cedar/Orange splash too from that brand, the scent is very simple and natural. For purely woody scent Oud / Santal woods 😜
