Thanks Dominic!

Thursday:

Expert Barber 400 6/8
Target Black Badger
Arko Stick
Alum Block
Witch Hazel
Afta Fresh Balm
Polo Sport edt

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

todays set up:

Dovo 6/8 Best
JM Fraser's Original SC
Thayers
Aqua Velva Original Sport AS
Nivea Sensitve ASB
Bigelow Green Cologne

Second day in - the hollow under my jaw (left side) continues to be irritated - I just need to get better with my off-hand. Other than that, I stropped the razor for the first time - seemed to work well. No cuts or nicks, but I confess to a few minor touch ups with a DE to clean up - under my lower lip and under my chin... every day os progress, and learning how to control the razor.

Really looking forward to the vintage Boker I sent off to gssxigun for honing to make it back - see how that one shaves.

Cheers Robert! True!!

Wow, Michael, you've got a really nice razor there, but that brush's flabergasting

Forgot to snap a picture today but went with a CO Bigelow theme:

Prep: Hot Shower
Lather: CO Bigelow + Glycerin
Brush: Jack Black
Razor: JR Torrey 5/8
Post: Alum
ASB: CO Bigelow Elixer Black
Cologne: CO Bigelow Elixer Black

The Torrey that I used today is the one that started it all for me. It was gifted to me by Oglethorpe 2 years ago and I will forever be grateful to him.
