Thanked: 7Great shave this chilly Monday morning.
I still have a bit over 2 weeks vacation left, so I’m taking advantage of sleeping-in and resting the mind and body.
Today’s shave was a chillaxing one.
Nice hot shower, hot towel on face and head, and a bowl lather. Just a mind-soothing and relaxing routine.
Still on a newly restored Wade & Butcher kick. Near wedge (if not full wedge), and such a smooth shaver.
Kinda blows me away with the steel craftsmanship they had nearly 200 years ago.
Still playing with autumn cold weather scents.
Loving my early morning routine.
Straight: Wade & Butcher (VR-stamped)
DE: Carbon Shaving CX-316L (head shave)
Lather: B&M “Hallows”
Balm: B&M “Hallows”

The cowhide strop provided a keen edge on the Sheffield wedge steel, which performed a silent march through the cream of the MWF resulting in a BB DFS.
