Shaving WITHOUT style
Razor: Dorco Plastic Safety Razor (Amazon $5.58)
Blade: Family Dollar Branded (1st use)
Brush: Perfecto Pure Badger (handle chipping)
Soap: Williams Mug Soap (purchased locally from WinCo Foods, roughly $1.00)
Aftershave: Family Dollar Branded Spice Aftershave
Comments/Overall Thoughts: 7/10, the blade is a pain to load and align properly in this razor. No cuts, no weepers, smooth-so much that I felt comfortable doing a fourth pass. The controversial Williams Mug Soap. I soaked the puck with my brush in my bowl. Not bloomed, soaked. Where I live the water is so hard you might as well have concrete coming out of your tap. I seen this technique from someone else and honesty it works to get a somewhat decent lather from this soap. I worked out the bubbles and took more time to build the lather. The aftershave is close to Old Spice and has a kick to it. Not an offensive scent at all. Tomorrow I look forward to going back to my daily drivers, but this showed me the economical products work just as well, but might require more sacrifice or effort.
