5 Shave Soaps New to Wetshaving (TAG VIDEO) 

Is it too late to tag you to make one? Is that a thing? Can I post tag you? Love tube cream

Thank you for tagging me :) I had fun doing this

Thanks! For making good soap and the hat compliment

Eeee thanks

Thank you

Yeah! A lot of people have great shaves with Proraso. I think it’s accessible enough too. Good recommendation. (Had to be a bit sassy at some point)

Thanks for watching. Yeah, I think with carts there’s a pressure I’m not used to using at this point. The colonel conk double track is pretty neat option for getting back in to cartridge shaves with a good lather kicking, the blade gap is perfect for a thick creamy lather

@@GregTardif I agree with using minimal pressure with carts and would like to see how that goes, nothing more than 3 blades, CC Trac II would be a good option.

I haven’t tried the Palmolive or the proraso tube creams 😎 I will probably do the same for the same reasons! Thanks for watching

Ah! A dapper Dan man! Cool. I like the 21st century stuff, the pucks are more croapy than soapy. The creams don’t carry the moniker of 21st century (that I’ve seen at least)

Thanks Chris! I had that Rihanna song stuck in my head, “ umbrella “ and I’m a phonetic reader lol. I got some good feedback when I struggled with Meiji 👍

@@GregTardif hahah, nice!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Proraso messes with my face so I tend not fuss with it

Nice! I do like my stirling soap. Have you tried a shave cream yet? I know a lot of people think the stirling or other big artisan soaps can be finicky when it comes to water and soap variables.

@@GregTardif no. I have not tried any shave cream! Can you believe it? I shaved with the same soap and straight razor for four years before it occurred to me to try something new. I was considering some shave creams from Taylor of Old Bond Street the other day though. I have heard they are easy to lather. I’m trying to get my travel shave kit together. I just got a stick of Palmolive to face lather when I take a trip. Maybe I would be happier with some cream from TOBS. I’m still wondering how to best travel with a brush though. I will get some shaving cream to face lather and find a travel brush I like. I did see a travel brush from Edwin Jagger. Thanks for the tip on shaving cream though.

I hear ya. I was shaving with the same gear for about 8 years. I have a small Rockwell synthetic brush that I don’t worry too much about with travel or some shops have a plastic travel tube you can slide it in for bristle protection. I think Phoenix artisan accoutrements usually carries them. Another travel cream option is Cremo, it’s a brushless cream, so you just rub it on your face and no brushwork is needed, you can put that in a travel size shampoo bottle or something. Good performer.

Lol Howlin Wolf had a song called “built for comfort” it’s great

I concur! Haven’t tried TOBS yet

Sheesh I said good soap a lot!!! Did you catch the ASMR?

Lol! I haven’t tried the proraso tubes yet. Are they fairly affordable? (Guess I can google it lol)

@@GregTardif Yeah, I think I paid $10 and they are pretty big tubes. They lather quick and easy also.

Nice! …or should I say TuBuLaR!?

@@GregTardif Up tight, outa sight and in the groove baby!

Yes! Good eye. That’s my omega brush

Haven’t seen that before. But your cousin was right!

What do you mean by “most natural”? What have you tried so far?

@@GregTardif i mean the ones that got the least amount of chemicals in it ,and i have tried so far (nivea and proraso sensitive) still a bit harsh on my face🥲

It’s great and affordable

Cannot beat the price to performance ratio.

Thanks for watching Steve. I haven’t tried TOBS yet. Will have to order some hehe

Lol one of these days
