Looking like a hobo? Not a bad thing. We're famous...We even have a book about us.

I ended up home sick today, touch of the Flu I believe, but that didn't stop me from shaving!!!!
.

Locale:	6,000' above Sea Level
Music:	Tommy Bolin = Teaser (again, one of my favorites)
Prep:	Hot Shower / Oil of Olay / Nexus Conditioner
Razor:	Don Belanger Custom Day- Don's Improved Eagle w Dogbone reserve
Hones:	10 laps on the barbers hone, 15/25 on the Star Chestnut
Brush:	Will Newman Custom 24mm Silvertip in Ash / Lather Bowl #2
Post:	Cold Water Splash - Alum
Uber:	XXX + Sir Irisch Moos
AS:	Lloyd's Balm + Pinaud Clubman Original
Edt:	Avon Signature
Result:	I spent almost 1 1/2 hours between the shower and shave today. Home sick, making myself try and feel better with a nice hot shower, with nice hot lather, 3 passes from my Eagle and the face is so clean!!! The two razors I chose today were both restored for me by Don Belanger and are 2 of the finest razors I have my massively growing collection. After todays shave, I am a full believer in the edge quality you get off a true barbers hone. 10 laps and this bad boy will split an atom!!!

.

Happy Shaves Men!!!!

To paraphrase Marcus Aurelius: In the morning, when you are sluggish about getting up, let this thought be present: 'I am rising to a man's shave.'

Wow! When you return from your camping trip it sounds like you'll need a weed wacker, not a straight razor, to eliminate that beard.

Well i recieved my shipment of Razo. I picked up Some of the Limited soap,Awesome stuff, and i tried the soap and AS wax. Im not overly crazy about the Lavender scent but the soap is great and the after shave wax is wonderful also. I decided to use my beasty Dovo 55. From the moment the blade touched my face i new this is going to be a great shave. 2 pass to a awesome BBS shave. When i was done i cleaned all my brushes per Roberts instructions.

Great job guys.
