Going back to the good old days

Hello everyone ,

If you have known me then you would have known that my shaving ritual used to include a lot of products starting from preshave to an asl and a balm .

Lately I have trimmed it to an extent where I don't even use an aftershave . Today I checked my stock and found my kailash ( my first good shaving soap which i purchased about a year ago ); tub is almost over so i decided to have a good old shave with whatever items I had brought with me here .

6S + Super thins @plate 6 is a combo i would recommend to anyone .

The kailash soap + asl gave that good calming scent & a great conclusion to a super tiring day .

Nivea ultra calming balm really moisturises my face giving that perfect post shave feel .

Nothing less than a gathering of great products giving an exceptional outcome just like the old times .

It would be so kind as to if someone pointed me in the direction where I could get a pack of Veestas Ultra Platinum and Super Platinum.

SOTD: Apex Plus & 7SP

Tried out this combination today and it worked really well. Blade was smooth and cut efficiently. Even ATG pass was handled without much drama. Could be one of my daily pairings, will check out how long it lasts with this razor. Second shaves are normally better with this blade so looking forward to it.

This brush is coming along beautifully and I can already feel the knot opening up and the bristles softening even further.

Overall a very satisfying shave! Cheers!!

VI John Masterstroke Review and Rating

This is in continuation of earlier thread. I got a trial pack and gonna do one shave from all the 15 blades and give my rating. https://www.reddit.com/r/Wetshavers_India/s/6Gf1e4yjwJ

So for today's shave decided to use VI John Master Stroke Chrome Plated Blade. Just on a whim decided to use it and experiment. Looking at their price was not very hopeful, but this blade surprised me. It is sharp and smooth WTG. Not winner level sharp but I was confidently doing quick long passes. I think I might have become too complacent so got a small nick in chin area.

However, ATG it struggled but still could do the passes quickly. In fact, the shaving both passes was finished quite fast.

In the alum test, one side has slight burning sensation, most probably due to my over confidence and not the blade itself as the other side had no issues.

So all in all a good sharp, smooth blade on first shave. If somebody feels winner is too sharp and looking for a notch below, can try this. Winner was smooth for me on both WTG and ATG.

Updated blade list by sharpness

Gilette super platinum

Winner black

Supermax super platinum plus

Is This Good Beginner's Cartridge Shaving Kit?

I’ve been using a tr*mmer for years and finally decided to try a proper razor. Someone suggested starting with a c*rtridge razor first and then moving to a safety razor later.

Here’s what I got:

- BSC Sensei Smart 3

- BSC Charcoal Shaving Foam

- Old Spice Original Aftershave

Total cost: around ₹260

I’ve done about 10 shaves with this setup over the last month (usually 2 shaves a week).

A few questions:

When is a good time to switch to a safety razor?

What’s a solid beginner-friendly safety razor to start with?

Is anything missing from this kit, or is it good enough?

Thanks in advance for any advice! ✌️

Foil Shaver recommendation

Hi all,

I am looking for foil shaver recommendations I have a lot of white beard and for my age (30) at least I want it to be as less visible as possible.

Because of this I tried shaving first but it felt that regularly shaving like once everyday or something is not like the long term solution.

Then I tried electric trimmers, the regular ones, they leave a bit of stubble but I was fine with it until I discovered Philips one blade and that gave me the best kind of finish that I was looking for. Minimal hurt and close to 0 or even 0 finish.

But now it's been only 1.5 months since I've bought the one blade and the blade has already wore off. Honestly, I cant see myself spending around ₹800 per blade this frequently.

So now on searching and ChatGPT I found out about foil razors which are kinda specifically designed for shaving off stubble and stuff. I already have the habit of using trimmers every day so that part shouldn't be the bother.

Can anybody suggest good foil razors or any good economical solution for the issue?

I know this sub is more about wet shaving but still felt the best place to answer my query. In r/shaving the recommendations they have are kinda expensive - Braun series 9 and stuff.

Best shaving gel I found and experience after using it for over 2 years!!

This is not a promotion.I fixed my grammar with AI and hand to cause my typing is baadd

I clean trim my beard weekly and clean shave once a month in the first week mostly. That means I shave 52-70 shaves per year including ones for special occasions or events. When I started shaving, I went through all shaving gels and foams, named ones like Gillette, Nivea, Bombay Shaving, and later I moved to Germany and tried Italian ones and German brands.

My skin is not sensitive per se, but sometimes I get razor bumps. So I was looking in a skincare sub and came across this Aveeno oat-based shaving gel. It looks like nothing special—no perfume, no cooling sensation -but boy, it makes it glide over like grease, and best of all, no razor bumps.

For people who have a specific perfume and want to use an aftershave without the aftershave fragrance combining into your perfume, this is perfect.

Funny enough, this is not available in Germany and mostly Europe. It has roughly a 2-year expiry date, so I get it whenever I go to India.

So, if you want to shave and need a gel that is sensitive on skin, little no pefume/fragnance and can afford 800 -1000 rs, get it.

SOTD - Monday night shave - 17/08/26

Had a smooth and precise shave

Razor : Leaf Twig

Blade : Parker half blade

Shaving Stick : Derby - Smells identical to Arko to my nose. Performance is also reallyyyy similar, but when I added some extra water it burst into a very creamy lather which I enjoyed. Not sure if that cannot be achieved by Arko tho. For me they’re like twins.

Brush : Omega Boar Wooden handle

ASL : BSC Turmeric

Passes : WTG + ATG

Result : BBS+

Good night folks
