Mon, Feb 4
Pre: Hot Shower, 15 Linen, 20 Leather
Razor: Hart 6/8" SquareTip w/Rosewood
Brush: TI Super Badger w/ Black Horn
Scuttle: Dirty Bird Brush Scuttle
Soap/Cream: MWF
Post: Cold water and Alum
Aftershave: Proraso
Shaved off the cheeks. The career fair is coming so I want to look less intimidating so down to the goatee. Used the last of the Proraso today. Good thing a package from SRD with a new bottle is inbound today or tomorrow.Shaving with facial hair is like a golfcourse. It's a challenge of rough and fairways. You are the skilled greenskeeper of your face?

Good morning y'all! I don't know if it's because I'm waking from a post Super Bowl food coma, but I seem to be moving at half speed in a hyper speed world. So, to rev up my slow start (and cut the hair that was missed in yesterday's shave) I decided to shave with my new vintage Gillette Tech.
Prep - hot shower
Soap - Bath House Spanish Fig and Nutmeg
Brush - M&F, classic
Razor - 1964 Gillette Tech, Weber bulldog handle, Merkur blades
Post - cold water, Kiehl's lotion
EDT - bond no.9, Chez Bond
Have a great week!Oscar

Joshua, seeing that razor in today's SOTD raises all kinds of feelings, starting with awe then evolving - quickly - to envy. What a beauty, congrats!

MONDAY
Hot shower prep
Razor: Solingen
Soap: Stroker’s Find
Mug: Coffee and soup cups
Brush: Generic 28mm badger
Aftershock:alum block
Splash: Captain's Choice “Bay Rum”
The Day: Gorgeous and cold. The Shave: Another shave from a wonderfully sharp blade. This traded for razor is among the best of my best. Paul honed it and it is superb! Stroker’s Find is a great glycerin soap and always protects and lubricates. Close and clean DFS in two. The Captain’s Choice is a nice sharp and pleasant Bay Rum.
The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!
