    Not really much to shave this morning after a great shave late yesterday. Just a quick all over touch-up to reset to BBS.

    Let me add my own heartfelt condolences as well. Take comfort in the fact that your father was a good man who lived a good life; and that he will suffer no more.

    Christmas Eve Shave!

    Pre: Hot Shower, 15 Linen, 15 Leather
    Razor: Hart 6/8" Square Tip w/Rosewood
    Brush: Simpson Major Travel Brush Super Badger
    Scuttle: None
    Soap: Williams
    Post: Cold water and Alum
    Aftershave: Proraso White

    Well I couldn't post two shaves last week as I was in Jacksonville giving a lucky lady a surprise date. She loved every minute of the fact that I drove 6 hours just to be with her for one date over the winter break.

    Let me list those shaves were the same set up. I found out that I can shave two days in a row. This was never accomplished with the old cartridge. Next... Williams has a ton of glide and minimal cushion. This taught me a lot on how to tackle my neck. I found myself today subconsciously using a narrower angle than ever before and getting less irritation than ever before (meaning d@mn near none at all just a quarter inch spot with the first transition from chin to neck). Using Williams has been a great tool for learning proper technique due to less cushion. I think my shave will be getting better and better. Now I am ready for the Christmas Eve party!
    Shaving with facial hair is like a golfcourse. It's a challenge of rough and fairways. You are the skilled greenskeeper of your face?
