Memorial Day Shave and Haircut

If you appreciate huge tubs of thick, peaked lather, this is NOT the shaving cream for you. It's applied with the fingertips and isn't much at all for lather. However, what it does lack in volume of lather it more than makes up for in slickness. It has a bit of a citrus smell to it and leaves the skin feeling very moisturized. While it was nothing like my normal fare, the end result was a fairly comfortable shave.

Sanguine R5 Shavette, Cremo shaving cream, Aqua Velva Classic, DAX High and Tight Pomade

Blade: Crown&Sword 13/16
Brush: Semogue 1305
Suds: T&H Shaving Soap

A joy of a shave!!

A sweet relaxing 3 pass shave with some new additions for my birthday. Got some more Tabac soap and cologne to add to the mix.
On this memorial day, pause and remember those who have sacrificed for our country!
Have a Great Monday Gents!

Happy Birthday Joe

Sunday evening
Hot water prep
Joseph Rodgers & sons 15/16 French nose razor - Truefitt & Hill Sandalwood cream - Scrupleworks strop - New Forest Silvertip badger brush - cold water splash - Thayer's witch hazel - Floid balm - hot shower - Piper Nigrum AcD

After a week of cartridge shaves, this was a blessing. Totally satisfying and again enjoyed to Billie Holiday tunes from the 30's and 40's.
The quality of images here is stunning... I may have to "up" my game.
Thank you gentlemen.
Happy birthday Joe!
