A two pass super BBS shave from the Wade and Butcher, I'm using the Semogue for the next few shaves as I'm trying to speed up the breaking in process, Still the brush just whips up a superb lather and won't need much effort several more shaves with a few test lathers should do the trick.

Great shave, no complaints at all. The SOC 2 band badger is a brush that really hits the spot for me and I reach for it more and more. Just a great balance of backbone and softness for me to lather anyway I want to. That is not to mention that the handle shape is so natural to hold too.

I feel like the revelation I had on Christmas Eve may have helped me conquer my neck finally. It looks like I may be trying to figure out how I will tackle a second pass on the neck sooner than I thought.
Shaving with facial hair is like a golfcourse. It's a challenge of rough and fairways. You are the skilled greenskeeper of your face?
