GREAT WEEK GUYS!!! LETS MAKE NEXT WEEK EVEN BETTER!!

Prep: Hot shower--followed by Lucky Tiger “Molle’” Brushless SC
Brush: Plisson - Faux Ebony - Pure European Grey - Size 12
SC: Queen Charlotte “Cedargrass Lemonwood” (Sample)
Strop: VB Red Latigo--55 fabric; 60 leather

Astringent: Thayer’s Original Witch Hazel w/ Aloe Vera
ASB: Barclay Crocker “Vitamin E Enriched”Bay Rum Scent

Another scent of the Queen Charlotte shaving soap-creams. Although both have provided me with excellent shaves, scent wise I prefer the Cedargrass-Lemonwood over the Celestial Woods. And believe me, after this week I needed the nice shave provided by today's shaving kit. Along with a week of work related stress, my son called at 4:00 A.M. yesterday with a stomachache that was diagnosed as appendicitis. He was operated on yesterday evening using laproscopic surgery and is being discharged from the hospital today.

I'm glad you were able to find solace in your shave. I'm glad your son is going to be ok. I know what you mean with the work stress. I hope you have a better week next week
