Have a nice day. And let's have a party in Vegas

Love those W&B razors. Showing both at once is called Teasing.

Todays Shave:

Went outside at 4Am and dug out the snow. Started the cars and ran back in to shower and shave.

Hot Shower (quick)
Dirty Bird Scuttle
Custom Badger
Trumpers SC
Gillette Fat Boy (second use of blade)
AOS aluminum
Aramis AS Balm

Nice quick shave. I am glad I don't have to use plastic anymore.

Enjoy the day.

PREP:Hot shower
RAZOR:Genco Easy Aces
BRUSH: POLO 10
SOAP: SRD Rose Otto
ASTRINGENT: Thayers Rose
AS: Booster oakmoss
ASB: Skinfood
EDT:Jean Paul Gaultier
RESULTS: GREAT LATHER,GREAT RAZOR,GREAT SHAVE!!!

HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT DAY!!! GREAT PHOTOS/NONPHOTOS/SHAVES BY ALL YESTERDAY AND TODAY.

RENE,CONGRATS BUDDY!!!

This is my handy travel kit.

-A D.R.Harris cowbone/bristle toothbrush in the first tube (Sometimes I pack another razor in this tube)
-Witch Hazel After Shave in the second tube - 20% Alcohol (I love the sting!)
-A pre-stropped razor in the third tube, rolled up in gun cloth - This time I packed a "Wanke Spezial" 9/16
that I bought from holli4pirating. Great little razor!

-A "Wee Scot" brush
-A small canister with Proraso shaving cream



I pack this in a plastic bag with 2 t-shirts, 2 pairs of socks and 2 pairs of underwear and place it under
the seat of my motorbike. Great for short trips. I love exploring South East Asia and I never know when
I will suddenly find a place I like more than I'd thought and would like to stay a day or two to explore
the city and it's surroundings rather than go back the same day as perhaps planned.

Glenn,
Glad to see that you and your straight got reunited after yesterday's disaster with airline/car/travel. Happy shaves

MisterA,
Very neat little travel kit...You have this formula down to the T. Nice to see you on SOTD. I love the way you travel; Spontaneous!!

How often are you in Norway and how often in Cambodia or South Asia? Sounds like an ideal retirement schedule.

this is a very nice kit for biker. Congrats!

Here you get my restoring project... and the results-you know I got a barber-box from a got friend who lives in Sweden.

I changed the mirror, repaired and cleaned the box. I think it looks beautiful.
