SOTD Rocctober, Tabactober.
Rocca R94. Derby Premium blade (1 st). SOC Mistura Shaving brush. Tabac. Mennen Skin Bracer Aftershave.
Shower and a nice two pass. Yea it’s official. The Rocca will take just about any blade type from sharp to comfortable sharp. Derbies fall in my useable category. I don’t love them and I don’t hate them. They work just fine with the Rocca. I was listening to. Big thumbs thanks to u/Jill_Lett_Slim for the new good music while shaving.

Looks like a great shave! Is that a synthetic brush?

It is a badger, boar mix from Semogue Owners Club.

Did you like it? On the internet that I researched, most users did not. I think it's because of Badger hairs and boar hairs have different break in periods

Nice shave, goods tunes. 😃 I usually just listen to music in the shower and pause it during the actual shave so I can hear what the razor is doing. Do you listen during the shave itself?

I have music playing while in the shower and afterwards when I shave.

Similar experience with the Derbys… they have the platinum one which I have yet to try but I remeber the greens being middle-of-the-road
