My last shave before traveling for two weeks - had to make it a good one...
Pre: Hot shower/conditioner
Strop: Kanayama (40/60)
Razor: Akatombow Frameback
Lather: BentonClay Lavender + Bomb Lavender (extra EO) + 5 drops glycerin
brush: Vulfix
Post: Thayer's Lavender
ASB: Sandalwood SkinFood
EdT: Creed Royal Delight
Result: Incredibly smooth BBS. The Akatombow does such a nice job!
For the next two weeks, I'll be limited to two straights and one shave cream set up. My SOTDs (if I even have connectivity to post them) will probably be pretty lame as a result, for that I apologize. In the meantime, enjoy your shaves everyone...
