RESULTS: RELAXING ZEN LIKE SHAVE

I have been very busy this weekend, was in Vegas for a quick 1 day to attend my 2 nieces birthday party, and woke up early this morning to head back so I needed to shave when I came back. Ahhhhh this shave was soo needed, nice and relaxing. Haven't used this blade in awhile and it rocked!!! Smooth as silk, as for the uberlather, Trumpers SW smells so heavenly and added with my home made (jockeys soap tutorial) shea butter soap I feel sooo great and I am ready for this busy week up ahead.

AMAZING PICS GUYS!!! I LOVE THIS LITTLE BROTHERHOOD WE GOT HERE

P.S sorry to Bill and Max i would have to loved to meet up with you guys but time would not allow it, hopefully in the near future though

Sorry 'bout that, Watermark. I drooled on your Genco.

'Beautiful!

Long week. Long days at work and last day of class so I have 18 final papers to grade. Looking forward to the coming long weekend for Thanksgiving.

Anyway Today's shave:

Long hot shower, Stephens rubbed into whiskers
Warm Oil
DB Scuttle
Proraso Shave cream
New Forest Badger
SRD P1 Strop, 25 Felt, 50 leather
Double Duck, by Max
AOS Aluminum
Bay Rum
Vaseline for men.

This razor gives an incredible shave. Anyone who has shaved with a razor from Max understands. The New Forest seems to really blooming after some use and along with the Proraso really felt creamy.
Another really nice, relaxing shave.

Enjoy the evening.

The Speyside is a good Single malt for anyone at any price. Not just due to the price. It has a great flavor. I think much of the price of some Scotch is due to advertising, not production. There are many great single malts that are not expensive.

Look through here, you can get some great ideas.

The ultimate single malt- Scotch Whisky - bottler

Second full face - goatee, Straight Razor Shave
Been using DE's for many years and just getting
into Straights, I should have started with Straights
before DE's. I find it much easier and much more controlling
than DE's were. I have in the last two shaves
gotten a closer and more comfortable shave and
not gotten any razor burn or irritation at all.
My skin is already smoother and softer.
A++++ For Straight Razors !!!

Prep: Hot shower--followed by Robeson bay rum beard prep method
Brush: Simpsons T2 “Super Badger”
SS/SC: Tabac + Castle Forbes (Lime) = Superlather
Strop: VB Red Latigo--50 fabric; 60 leather
Razor: 5/8 dubl duck “Goldedge”
Astringent: Alum block
ASB: Nivea for Men “Extreme Comfort”
AS: Floid (Spanish) “Suave”
Result: Heavenly…

I haven't used my dubl duck in quite a while. I'd almost forgotten just how great a shaver she is. After today, I won't forget again.

Matt,
First: Happy birthday to your nieces

Second: Great shave & congrats on making a homemade Shea butter

Not meeting up with Max and Bill is like finding an oasis in the desert and not drinking the water
