Great shave. First time I have shaved before showering in a long time. A nice hot shower with pre-shave makes a significant difference in feel.

- Prep: hot shower
- Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
- Razor: WCS Classic Collection Razor 84S, Stainless Steel, Closed Comb
- Blade: Lord Super Chrome (1)
- Lather: Wholly Raw - Monaco Royale - Premium Shaving Soap
- Post Shave: Wholly Raw - Monaco Royale - Artisan Aftershave Balm
This West Coast Shaving razor (or any WCS razor for that matter) is not one I really ever see mentioned. It’s not high end, and it looks a little clunky, but it feels good in my hand and consistently gives me close and (usually) comfortable shaves.

- Brush: Zenith 506U N (50/50 horse mane/tail)
- Razor: Dovo Bismarck 2 (7/8″, full hollow, carbon steel)
- Lather: Declaration Grooming Peaches + Scream
- Aftershave: Ariana & Evans Peach & Cognac
- Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company Seaforth! Black Watch
Peach, Peach, Plum, and an “oh, you smell nice, summerly!” from the wife. I got Peaches + Scream as part of my Lather Games 2022 prize, and this is my first time using it. My first impression is another fruity happy scent in line with Tribute, Southern Paradise, Chaotic Neutral, and I don’t get any of the Scream Season from the scent.
Black Watch is an elegant, dark cousin of bright and playful Peaches + Scream.
We’re lather twins today

Vespers is way too good to be considered just a winter scent. Lovely evening shave tonight.
I agree. Great scent.

Happy Birthday, MM24
- Brush: Rubberset 400 (unnumbered) with a 26 mm Zenith knot at 63 mm loft
- Razor: EldrormR Industries - GEM Division: MM24
- Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac Original
- Aftershave: Zslur Man Unscented Sego After Shave Balm
@merikus@sub.wetshaving.social remembered that today is the second anniversary of the MM24’s maiden voyage, and I’ve decided to postpone my planned Dirtyver→Spiced→TdH evening shave to tomorrow and recreate chief EnGEMeer u/EldrormR’s historic shave. The MM24 is my third-most used razor, and I always enjoy using it, even if I’m mostly using straight razors these days.
