A little late posting this but wanted to get her in. Just a 2 pass WTG today. In a hurry but still pulled out a DFS. I think I'm going to start doing WTG passes this week to see what I can get from them without any other direction just for giggles and to try a few things. Great shaves all and wow it's been below 100 and low humidity(for S Tx) for the last few days! Almost feels like fall!!"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

Wednesday Razor: Sprock 6/8 Brush: Simpson 57 Cream: Trumpers Sandalwood Post: Alum rub, Jovan Musk (in atomiser) I should start this off by extending a massive thank you to Konstantinos for generously giving me the brush. It is my 1st usage of a Simpson brush and, as I had been assured, now I see what all the fuss is about. I will need to learn it a bit better as it performs differently than my NF and Vulfix, but the face feel and backbone are superb. The Sprock as ever performed faultlessly, it makes me wonder why I ever bother with another razor but then again using others put into perspective how good it really is.

Thanked: 640 Thursday
Today is normally a shave day, but I am unable to get one of my fingers wet, meaning I'd have to shave with one hand... so in a break with tradition, I will leave the shaving to Sunday for an epic, full beard shave (yes I have a lot of stubble). Keep all your wonderful photos coming though!

Quick shave this evening since I am exhausted.
Warm Shower, Stephan's
Dirty Bird
Razo Rock Shave cream/soap
1959 Fat Boy, Derby Blade
AOS Aluminum
Pinaud Clubman
Vaseline for men
Quick shower and shave. Too quick actually. Had a heavy hand with the Fat Boy which resulted in a nice Burn when applying the AS. No biggie just not use to it anymore.
I ordered some stuff from Italian Barber which arrived yesterday so I decided to try the RazoRock Shave Cream/Soap. I don't know what the cream/soap deal is but the lather was spectacular and the aroma wonderful.
Enjoy the evening.
Hope you enjoy the picture.

Locale:The place from which no whisker ever returns Music: The Who - Live at Leeds prep: Hot shower / OBR Original Soap / Hair Conditioner Strop: Star 3" Big Daddy Chestnut 50/150 Brush: Whipped Dog 22mm Pure Badger - Love the stiffness of this one Uber: Cella - right to the face, no bowl Razor: 6/8 Challenge Razor Works Hollow Point in Smoke Acrylic Post: Alum Block + Humphrey's Alcohol Free Witch Hazel Hydrating Toner & Jasmine AS: OBR Sandalwood EDT: OBR Original Scent Cologne Result:One of my first restores, this razor is still one of my favorites. Tonite I ran her over some Crox and diamonds then stropped holy heck out of her to try and calm it down some. This razors edge is so fine it really needed some smoothing before using again. The Cella taken straight to the face is really pretty fabulous. I was very happy with it. The OBR is one of my all time fav's. I like smelling myself when I wear it, who cares what SWMBO thinks, LOL!! (ya right! She likes it too!). Another all OBR night, I love it. Sorry I'm so prominent in the blade reflection, but this razor is a true mirror finish. It's beautiful in my eyes. Another great shave!! and another Wednesday down!
Happy Shaves!!!!
