Finally got the chance to shave but using a candle and cold water. I've been shaving in cold water for about a year so that was no problem so it sure came in handy knowing how to do that. We have to boil water right now. A little strange using candle light actually kind of eerie. I was expecting Anthony Perkins to attack me from behind, the Psycho movie star, but it was an interesting challenge.
Prep: Any Soap and cold water
Cream: Proraso
Razor: Thiers-Issard 6/8 Grelot
Brush: Badger Brush Silver-Tipped
Strop: Illinois Russian Leather and Linen
Aftershave: Nivea non-alcohol cream
A good shave surprising goes a long way to help cope with the day. Thanks again guys.
