Thread: Sun January 23rd - Sat January 29th

.

Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W

Razor: Griffon #60

Brush: Simpson Chubby II

Soap: Irisch Moos

Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel

AS: Aqua Velva

EDT: Davidoff ~ Cool water

Results: I decided on a colorful and refreshing shave. Snowing and freezing conditions in some parts of the country but luckily enough running around in my shorts today enjoying a nice warm sunny day made me realize how lucky I am living on the West side of the country. Everything was just perfect. From the smooth shave to the final refreshing splash. Talk about enjoying an early spring

Nice day today, hung out with the kids, did some restoration work, did some work in the garden with 5 year old Lilly, nice way to spend Sunday.
I finished restoring this Wostenholm last week but this was the first full shave with it. This thing came away from the Vintage Thuri with a super smooth edge on it. The 2 day growth disappeared effortlessly. A very comfortable, easy to use razor. This ones another keeper.

Enjoy your Sunday and have a great week gentlemen
As always thanks for all the posts and pics.

Wo hoo! Second day with the japanese razor (long time since I shaved with the same razor two days in a row ) and today was much closer. Ohra wasn´t faced out all the time, but I think this is how I´ll do it from now. Most of the time I kind of hold it "right" though. Enough lather for our son to shave aswell (Mach3 with japanese touch ups by me, on easy parts ).

Max,

Grrrrrrrr...You make me jealous. I'm freezing my gluteus maximus off here. There's no need to rub it in by mentioning how balmy it is in Vegas.

BTW...I'm pleased that you enjoyed your shave. That shaving kit of yours just added 10 degrees to my body temperature.
