Burn! Nicely done!

Rooney 1/1 | Tabula Rasa Dark Lavender | Goodfella DE/Feather | Alum | Cade Balm | Le Labo Rose

Another miserable cold wet day, the 22nd in a row in fact... a nice hot lather makes things a little better.

Prep: as usual a nice hot shower and a lathering while stropping
Soap: Fitjar Lighthouse Bay Rum
Brush: Rooney silvertip
Razor: Wester Bros Manganese
Post: witch hazel



Better than last time, I think the edge is reasonable and going with a lather that I like makes the shave a lot better. Still needs some work but a serviceable shave non the less.

Great shaves today!

Colorado evening / Spike Wedge / T&H Ultimate Comfort / Skin Bracer / Black Leather

Late shave tonight, but a good one. Nothing beats the oldies. My old spike and my old Skin Bracer, and some T&H. Chase that with some Black leather and the wife is putty in my hands!

The Ultimate Comfort created really nice lather as I've come to expect from T&H. Combined with some pre-shave oil and the whiskers just fall off.

Happy Shaves!!

Mike



p.s. I think my photog skills are improving!!

Good afternoon Gentlemen!

Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Omega boar # 81052
Soap: Crabtree & Evelyn Nomad
Razor: W. Gregory & Son, 5/8 All Right Hollow Ground
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: Florida Water
Notes: I just did a touchup on this edge, after I discovered a few minute watermarks that I polished out. Great results, not counting the HHT that turned into a HTT (Hanging thumb test). You know what they say, luck aids the fool, so nothing bad. Nice relaxing and smooth shave.



Have a great evening Gents!

Oh that sounds so good. I wish i could trade with you. Right now were in the middle of a 3 day 100deg run. My room didnt go below 80 last night.

I want to shave but the sweat is washing away my lather.

No shave for me today.
Great shaves all round!

I'd gladly trade now that day 23 has started with a steady rain. I think I'm not going to need to worry about preping the beard for a shave as the moisture permeating everything will likely keep it soft.

Robert - I'm quite a bit north of California; right in the middle of BC would be home.
