Thread: Sun November 21th - Sat November 27th

Prep:Hot towel
Brush:Semogue 830
Strop: SRD Premium IV English Bridle
Scuttle: SRD
Cream: da Bomb “Bodega”
Razor: Genco “Easy Aces”
After shave: Brut
EDT: Burberry “Weekend”


Result: Today was the first day I used the Semogue 830 with a cream. I must say that I still prefer badger for cream and boar for soap. The spicy smell of the Bodega cream was intoxicating as I marinated my face in it. The Genco is a small, nimble blade very similar to the my Dubl Duck. The shave was smooth and easy and I'm ready to start the day. I took this week off and have been having some lazy mornings with my soon to be 2 year old little girl. She likes to brush my face and say “rough” before I shave and afterwards she will feel it and say “Smooooooth”. Gotta love that kid Have a great day gentlemen, you deserve it!

Glenn,
My daughters are 22 and 19. They have been running their hand over my freshly shaved face since they were 2 also. They never checked the whiskers before but after a shower and shave, they would waddle over, run their hand over my face just like their mother did and state "ohhh.....smoooothy smooth Daddy." This past Tuesday the older daughter arrived home from Florida. Later, I showered and shaved and as she walked past me, at age 22, she ran her hand over my face and exclaimed "ohhhh Daddy, very smooothy smoooth." Kissed my cheek and then retired for the evening.

My point is that you will be enjoying those comments for many, many years to come. It is those little moments that I miss most when they are away at school.

Something my Dad taught me upon the birth of my first daughter, I am not sure he is the Author:

" A son is a son until he takes a wife. A daughter is a daughter for the rest of your life." Unknown author.

Enjoy your Holiday!!!

PS I love that Easy Aces, but I think I've told you that before.
