Thread: Sun January 9th - Sat January 15th

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: 22mm Vulfix Super Badger

Razor: 7/8" Filarmonica Doble Temple #13, Full Hollow, Spike Point

Strop: 55/70 (Torolf linen/Premium IV leather)

Soap/Überlather: D.R. Harris "Lavender" Shave Creme + D.R. Harris "Lavender" Shave Soap + Glycerin

Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)

Moisturizer: D.R. Harris Aftershave Milk

Cologne: D.R. Harris "Marlborough" EdC

Results: What a fun weekend with the kids . After they left last night, it was time for a good shave this AM. And what better way for me to start this week to the tune of D.R Harris Lavender and the Filarmonica DT13? The amazingly rich and thick lather from this combo SC/SS was exactly what I needed to prep my rough, 2-day growth. I should have opted for the 2-band Simpson or Shavemac, but instead went for my vulfix...the backbone was virtually non-existent to take care of this wire mesh...but, spending a minute or so longer for the prep really did the trick. The softened beard was no match for the Filarmonica. She wiped it clean with zero hesitation and ruthless abandon. BBS and clean in 3 simple, effortless passes . D.R. Harris Milk with Marlborough EdC provided my skin with Grade A moisturizing feel.
