6/28/24 Lather Games shave

  • Brush: EverReady 200 / old TGN finest

  • Lather: Vitos - Extra super

  • Razor: Aluminum-handle Tech w/ Suneko

  • Post Shave: Master - Bay rum

So for the soap, when I got this I believe Vitos was going for $22 for a kilo block. Thats $2.20 per 100grams (“normal” soap tub size), or 2.2cents per gram.

I bought this 15oz bottle Master bay rum right after I started wet shaving, and at the time I’m pretty sure it was $7-8 from one of the barber supply stores. So let’s call it 50cents an ounce. As I’m typing this though I’m realizing that my similar-size bottle of Osage Rub might have actually been a little cheaper. Hmm….

The vintage EverReady brush is one that a brush hobbyist threw in with a purchase I was making for $2. He had meant to restore it but never did, I thought I might try my hand at restoring it but clearly haven’t either 🙄

This Tech is another one I got in a purchase somewhere for $2-3. And Suneko blades were going for something like $6-7 per 100pack, so 6-7cents per blade.

Happy Friday, I hope everyone has a great weekend 👍
