Thread: Sun March 25th - Sat March 31st

I started the day with a 10 mile run, a long cold shower and a super relaxing shave.

F.W.Engels 8/8, Thäter Silver-tip, Domenico Caraceni shaving cream and EdT. Gillette President for the head shave.

I was about to encourage you to do it, but I'm too late.
Well done Carl. For what its worth I think it looks great

Good afternoon Gents!

Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Custom 28mm silvertip in wood and horn
Soap: Martin de Candre Le Domino
Scuttle: Robert Becker extra large
Razor: Spike, Union Cutlery Co, 5/8 hollow spike point
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: Sherwood home made splash
Notes: I started out using Proraso Green Tea, but I really don't like menthol in my shave soap, so I washed it off and removed it from my shaving rotation. After that my shave was brilliant, the MdC was much more agreeable with me. Relaxing and comfortable, and finished with a woodsy forest fragrance. What a great way to end march!



Have a great weekend guys!

I agree with Grant. It looks badass, Carl. For your family, give it some time; it's probably quite a shock for them.

Phew, that's a relief at least

I may just do it every second month on the night before the full moon. Depends what SWMBO says...But given she’s given it a ‘minus 1’ and the son’s review started with ‘well, for a start you’ve got a slightly pointy head…’]

Doesn't look too bad to me Carl... and not THAT pointy! LOL. Seriously, it's something you just have to try at least once, and I say 'brave on you!!'.
