- Brush: Razorock Beehive Synthetic 28mm
- Razor: Zertone 6/8 Straight Razor #ALLNATURAL
- Lather: Zingari – The Socialite
- Post Shave: Thayers – Rose Petal
The Socialite is a gin and tonic scented soap, with a strong juniper berry opening. Lime and some light botanicals follow, wrapped up with a mentholated kick to encapsulate a G&T in shaving soap form. This razor was my first straight, and while it certainly isn't the best out there, it does get the job done with a fresh hone.
I have no interest in spending the rest of the summer growing back my leg hair, so I decided to shave my armpits for today's challenge. I was expecting to have a lot of trouble with it, but the straight was able to mow through everything and get me to a nearly clean shave in the first pass. Also, picks or it didn't happen, ya filthy animals.
Gin and Soap to the tune of Gin and Juice by Snoop Dogg
Lyrics:
With so much drama in r-W-S
It's kind of hard bein' Crisp M-A-N-G-O
But I, somehow, some way
Keep shavin’ with funky-ass shit, like, every single day
May I kick a little something for the G's
And make a few suds as I breeze through?
Two in the mornin' and the posts's still jumpin'
‘Cause LatherBot ain't home
I got shavers in the subreddit shavin' it off
And they’re all lathered' at six in the mornin'
So what you wanna do?
Shit, I got a den full of soaps and my homeboys do too
So turn on the lights and close the doors
But (But what?) we gotta lather though, yeah
So we gon' lather a gram to this
G's up, hoes down, while you motherfuckers shave to this
Rollin' through the sub, shavin’ faces
Shavin' with gin and soap, laid back
With my mind on my lather
And my lather on my mind
Rollin' through the sub, shavin’ faces
Shavin' with gin and soap, laid back
With my mind on my lather
And my lather on my mind
