Okay. I know there are comfort foods and comfort clothes, blankets and whatnot , but does anyone have comfort shaving stuff ? Hardware / software that they turn to when they just need " comfort " or to relax ??
I got you.
Semogue 1305 brush
Proraso red OR Art of shaving sandalwood
Your favorite scuttle preheated and ready to warm your lather.
Edwin Jagger DL89 with a Derby blade OR a Soviet era straight razor.
After the rinse, splash on some Thayer’s Coconut water witch hazel-
Then for the aftershave you have a choice of:
Proraso Sandalwood, OR Art of shaving sandalwood balm OR- break from the sandalwood schtick and opt for some Musgo Real balm.
THAT gents is my colder weather relaxing shave!
SUMMER / HOT weather relaxing shave:
COLD WATER!!!
Semogue 1305 loaded with EITHER:
Proraso green OR Col. Conk Lime
Same razors and blades-
Thayer’s Cucumber Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva OR Proraso green.
Those are my “can’t be bothered to choose and remember which needs to be rotated, screw it, let’s just go with what we love” shave. Enjoy!
