Yesterday marked three weeks since my first straight shave. I'm really enjoying it so far, and the cuts are few and far between. I had a small nick today after several days of problem-free shaves.

I didn't really need to shave today...but did so to relax and indulge. Nothing fancy though, just nice, clean and fresh!

Also, and more importantly, took the time to remember all those that fought for our freedom 65 years ago today and especially the 14,000 Canadian troops that stormed Juno Beach.

Good Sunday morning all...

Still working on one WTG pass with the straight...a little careless and to small nicks to show for it...finished with the birth year superspeed and a "swede" blade (last day for that blade)...but a very smooth result...oh yes, and that Noxema is wonderful.
