Earlier this year..I had a seizure out of the clear blue.Long story condensed: A brain tumor was removed and I'm now kicking cancers butt! All forms of therapy complete, radiation complete and now doing chemo with no effect on me so far. When I got out of the hostpital I was reluctant at first,but very able and confident using my double edged razors. This channel has taught me techniques as well as kept me up to date on new products. Even after brain surgery..NO CUTTING MYSELF and have a baby smooth shave each and every time. I have learned so much by watching your videos! Best shave videos on all of youtube,by far!
Hi Geo- Great shave today; thank you! It was nice to see all three of the razors in action back to back. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!🎄 Take care and best regards, as always!
A francaphone is someone who's first language and spoken tongue is French. In Canada we have 2 official languages. English and French. Quebec is mainly a French speaking province with exceptions for other areas in Canada, ie, New Brunswick and Northern Ontario to name a few. Great shave Geo. May I add your reviews are real and not biased which I find awesome! IMHO many who make videos in this hobby are the opposite. Cheers Brother and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours! 👍👌🍻🍻🍻
Nicely done Geo💈💈 Using 3 razors gave that top to bottom smooth finish. I've used 2 but never 3 razors before, and gave the R41 away, didn't get along with it. Another great video on a recommendation, variety of content always appreciated, thanks. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. See you next time. Enjoy!
I have the 34c and it is way too mild. I reccomend you buy a little more aggressive razor like the fine Marvel razor or the Henson medium aggressive razor. These razors are not too mild andnot too agressive but very efficient with yhe right blade
Dont get me wrong, the 34c might work on your skin type but I did as the other comment onhere says. I tried the 34c with the sharpest of blades, feather, Kai, gillette platinums and it was still too mild and not efficient enough. Just tryin to help.😁
I like to use the 39C for the 1st pass with the grain when I have to cut down a few days of growth because it slices everything down like butter. No chattering or tugging. The German Long Sword (R41) is my favorite for the 2nd or 3rd pass. Makes bbs that lasts surprisingly long and almost no skin irritation.
Placed a order on shave nation today. JAMES Shirley here geo. Brain cancer is going down! Thank you for all the videos and product information. Totally confident shaving with my safety razors. Much technique learned by watching your videos. Merry Christmas and have a great New Year.
Well, it does not need to be necessarily your first language. As a Tunisian, French is currently our second language and we're considered to be Francophones. All member nations of the "Organisation internationale de la Francophonie" are considered francophones.
Geo you are hilarious and very informative. Having the best shave of my life and fav is 39C... then 34C. i have medium grain and add long as you let the sledgehammer glide is perfect! even 1 pass. but i love lathering with my new supersoft 24mm synthetic brush. thanks again. always entertaining.
Great content as always. Might have to get some Proraso balm. I love the sandlewood aftershave. When are you going to do a straight razor shave? Been awhile. Merry Christmas to you and all of our fellow wet shavers around the world
I totally agree. A quality adjustable razor with settings that actually deliver the desired difference in the degree of aggression is definitely a more practical, less fussy and gimmicky way of achieving the same results.
@@geofatboy …You bet! On second thoughts, though, using three razors in one shaving session at least guarantees more of your razors see more action than they otherwise would, used individually, by rotation.
In Quebec a francophone is of French heritage with French being their mother tongue. An Anglophone’s mother tongue is English. Many Anglophones are fluent in French and vice versa.
For a video idea Try a shave with the van der hagen safety razor like the ones they have all over the place at walmart and target with the van der hagen blades id love to see your take on it. Been in a pinch before and easily was able to find one locally instead of buying a crappy cheap disposable.
@@geofatboy I think you should also do another Video on the feather. An update video- I got mine and I got to say it is an engineering feat. #teamfeather
😭 Ive cut the shit out of my face with a safety razor and feeling the razor burn🔥 the next day on my next still. Im trying alot of moisturisers and aloe vera to try and reduce it. Ive stopped the bleeding but what can i do to help restore the very sore red skin on my neck?
A Francophone is simply a person from a French Country OR French Culture of a Country. Equally, a person who speaks French may be considered a francophone, although in my opinion, a "true" francophone has a has deeper grasp and immersion in French culture. In the US, Cajun, Haitian and Creole cultures are Francophone esp in the Louisiana region but there are pockets in Minnesota, Michigan, Florida and believe it or not(YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS)Illinois. I speak French fairly well but I don't consider myself a Francophone. Merry Christmas and Ho, Ho, Hooooooooooooooo!

I didn't expect anything else when three German razors are used. Thank you for your selfless commitment. Greetings from Bavaria.
Thanks so much for the love Falki!
Francophone is a french speaking person !
Thank you for this presentation
Éric G.
Geo: Francophone is someone who speaks French, Luciphone is someone who speaks Portuguese and Anglophone; I am sure you have figured it out….
Got it-Thanks so much for clarifying.

Thanks so much Peter I appreciate you and your positive comments! I hope Christmas was great and All the best in 2022!
Big surprise for me because Trafalgar T3, Merkur 34C (with Astras) and Proraso Sandalwood is exactly what I use! Great stuff 👌
A Winning Combo!

Never a problem when Geo is mixing up the lather!
Amen to that!
Thank you for your content I have finally started shaving correctly thanks to your video’s
WOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
That was great Geo🤙 Very entertaining and thanks for the info regarding the proraso balm👍 Be well and stay safe🙏
Thanks Mark! All the best!
I'm getting the 34C for Christmas. Can't wait to use my first DE razor from shave nation!! 💥💥
I have the 34c and it is way too mild. I reccomend you buy a little more aggressive razor like the fine Marvel razor or the Henson medium aggressive razor. These razors are not too mild andnot too agressive but very efficient with yhe right blade
Ignore the comment below , use a feather or wizamet to make the 34 more efficient

About time you made a video about your skincare routine, you've got better skin than teenagers
Well teenagers tend to have zits and stuff on their face so that’s no surprise
Thanks so much Paul. Greatly appreciated.
Been watching your channel for a few months now and i gotta say, awesome content! Greetings from Berlin, Germany.
Thanks so much! All the best from the USA.
A Francophone is someone who speaks French, especially someone who speaks it as their first language.
Exactement! (Exactly) ;)

@@ThePunisher014 Exactly! I was about to make the same point. I didn’t need to because I see you’ve already stated it clearly and well.
Got it-Thanks!
Nice shave and video! I have the 34C and R41 and also the T3 brush. Merry Christmas and see you next year!
Nice! Thanks Keith and all the best in 2022!
That “Man Down” will go down in the history books Geo!😂 I’m pretty sure there was a second man down too:) Merry Christmas 🎄

Hi Jeff,Thanks and all the best to you in 2022!
You absolute madlad the U.N. outlawed three razor shaving it's too thorough for them
Be nice!
Solid video! Nicely done!
Thanks Randall!
I've used a shavette and a DE together, but I'd just use an adjustable before I'd use three separate razors.
I totally agree. A quality adjustable razor with settings that actually deliver the desired difference in the degree of aggression is definitely a more practical, less fussy and gimmicky way of achieving the same results.
Not a fan of cleaning 3 razors after a shave...
@@geofatboy …You bet! On second thoughts, though, using three razors in one shaving session at least guarantees more of your razors see more action than they otherwise would, used individually, by rotation.

In Quebec a francophone is of French heritage with French being their mother tongue. An Anglophone’s mother tongue is English. Many Anglophones are fluent in French and vice versa.
Thanks for sharing.
If I used that R41 it would mow down my beard growth and take some skin with it. I would look like Freddy Krueger shaved me. Lol
Every cloud has a silver lining-you could be in his next movie!

A Frankophone is a French speaker.

Hi Geofatboy
top job a again.
Thanks!
You’re the best Geo!!! Merry Christmas!!! (VLS)
Thanks VLS! Best to you in 2022!
francophone refers to someone whose first language is French
Thanks Anwar!
Hi. Have u used any Indian razors? Pls try em n make a video.
I believe Parker makes their razors in India, and he has done videos of Parker's.
All Parker razors are Indian razors so-Yes!
shavenation.com/collections/parker-safety-razors
I always cut myself with r41. I AM the beginner and have to spend plenty od hours improving my shaving technique.
The R41 is a super aggressive razor
Yeah, I know. And I have already experienced IT on my skin 😀😖
It will take some time to tame that beast!
Very nice vid, excellent tools. BUT I have one question: watch--is it an Iwatch.....what type of case/band is that? Thx
Links T. Items worn, shown, and used in the video are below the video where it says Show More! But here it is anyway: amzn.to/3hpMhRD
can we please see you use the feather as d2 in more of your videos matched with proraso or Taylor of old bond street
Sure, I can do that!
@@geofatboy I think you should also do another Video on the feather. An update video- I got mine and I got to say it is an engineering feat. #teamfeather
Geo boy for a beginner, what’s the best safety razor to try if I have never done it before?
Mühle R89 🙂
R89 39C 23C Henson-All great!
•R89: bit.ly/R89RazorSN
•DE89: bit.ly/DE89RazorSN
•34C- bit.ly/HD34CRazorSN
•6C:Rockwell6CSafetyRazorSN
Henson: bit.ly/HensonAL13RazorSN
I got the Merkur 34c but need pre shave oil, I tried shaving with gilllette gel no good haha
Geo can you use a Merkur Futur instead of this? Or is not the same
You can see it here: bit.ly/MerkurFuturSN
Geofatboy Sir
Sir can you review Parker 76r.
Sure can but it's likely same as the 99R, just a different color handle: bit.ly/Parker99Rrazor
😭 Ive cut the shit out of my face with a safety razor and feeling the razor burn🔥 the next day on my next still.
Im trying alot of moisturisers and aloe vera to try and reduce it. Ive stopped the bleeding but what can i do to help restore the very sore red skin on my neck?
What razor and what is your routine?

Merry Christmas and Ho, Ho, Hooooooooooooooo!
Thanks for a well thought out-thorough answer! I got it now.
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and all the best in 2022 from Uncle Geo 😉
Hi Geofatboy
you did not use staight razor for a long time now and maybe try.
thank
Kevin
Sounds good Thanks Kewei!
I’m sorry geo that want be for me to many razors to clean
Solid content as always! Season's Greetings!!!
Thanks Rod!
What is the best razor to use?
One razor all the way is how I roll. Using more than one is like cheating on the first razor you used.
Ha Ha! Love it! When you put the first one down, it might bite you next time!
@@geofatboy You know it.
Geo I believe he means he speaks French. 1:40
Thanks Three!
😎😎😎😎
Thanks lori!
Francophones speak french :P
Thanks!
Francophone = French Speaker in Latin.
Great-Thanks!
Seems like an overly cumbersome idea for a shave, but hey, makes for a good video. 👍
