Enjoy the week gentlemen.
Awesome shave this Sunday morning.
Only a 1/2 day Zoom class today. (0900 to 1400 hours).
Smoked the two pre-tests.
Next Saturday is a 1/2 day of labs, then next Sunday are our two final exams.
Woke-up early and ate breakfast with my liddle mini-me. Afterwards I took a nice hot shower, and then had a great face and head shave before the class.
Still sticking with my autumn/winter scents.
I am always amazed at how well an almost 200-year old restored Wade & Butcher still shaves. (I totally dig the nostalgia factor of it as well). Just love how quiet it is (almost a full wedge), and what a crazy smooth shave it gives. Definitely my second favorite razor.
Just an outstanding shave!
Crushing life!

Great shave this early Monday morning.
Wanted something a bit different, so I went with Southern Witchcrafts, “Druantia”. (Cedar, Oakmoss, Rosewood, Cypress).
Nice, natural, scent. Organically clean.
Love Southern Witchcrafts soaps. Just incredibly slick and nourishing.
So I went with an unscented soap and balm to pair with the Druantia scent. (I never clash scents together. Just ghetto).
Superb face and head shave.
Crushing the day.
