This is actually my first shave of 2009, since New Years day the weather has not let up, it has snowed a minimum of 6 inches everyday so all I have had time to do is work and fight the snow....
Nothing beats the closeness of a shave after so long :D

I had a wonderful shave today!
Used a solingen 5/8 spike
Classic brand Sandalwood soap
Best badger brush
Alum
And not the least Bay rum A/S
The lather was really good and rich, liked this soap a lot. I got BBS all over my face, just not the right side of my chin, where I have a couple of small scabs from weepers and managed to cut myself trying no circumnavigate them.
The bay rum was amazing! Instead of the usual sharp burn from the A/S it had more of a hot, slightly burning feeling that lasted for about a minute.

This morning I had a great shave with a Shavette... sounds odd doesnt it
I was time limited (I honed my razor until late last evening so I couldnt get out of bed in time) so I figured I'd just skip the stropping thing and replace the blade in the Shavette..
I usedd Palmolive shaving cream
I also just did a two pass shave.. right after taking a shower..
first pass: WTG whole face
second pass.. ATG on cheeks, just under my lower lip and neck. XTG on chin and upperlip
then a rinse with warm and cold water finished off with sanex afftershave balm.
The Result: BBS shave all over and a nice tingling feeeling all over my face from the alum in the ASB
Now where is my espresso..
