    Prep - None
    Strop - 3 Inch bridle leather/hard felt
    Razor - Tuckmar "Hammond" 5/8 wedge/stropped night before
    Brush - Omega 10066 Boar
    Soap - Arko stick
    Post - Alum block followed with Thayers witch hazel
    AS - Aqua Vela Ice Blue

    Excellent cold water face lathered shave with my only working wedge razor. Just got the Omega boar brush yesterday and after giving it 6 test lathers yesterday it performed like a champ this morning. It made more than enough lather for 3 passes without adding more Arko. It is now my official travel brush. Don't work too hard.

    Curiosity and supporting a friend is the reason for the razor.

    Brush - Simpsons Chubby 2, Manchurian in butterscotch.
    Razor - Cadman & Sons, Bengall, 6/8

    Skipped a day shaving on Sunday and needed a good stiff blade for some serious monday morning deforestation. My trusty puma 69 was just the right razor for the task and left my face glass smooth with one pass.

    Prep: hot shower
    Brush: New Forest knot in an old barbers handle
    Razor: Puma + GEM Micromatic
    Cream: Maca Root by Bodyshop
    AS/edt: Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Uberclean

    First go with this cream and it's a good one, I think, even though I pressed my head shaves with two in row days with the Micromatic (it was so fun, but I think my head needs a little rest now ).

    Yesterday's Shave the 24th.

    Razor: 7/8 Peaso
    Strop: Scrupleworks Horween/Linen 50/50
    Brush: HL Thater 4125/2 Two Band
    Soap: DR Harris Windsor
    WH: Thayers Lavender
    AS: Floid Blue
    EdT: Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue

    Everything just fell into place yesterday. My selections combined with not being in a hurry made for the most delightful shave I have had in a long time! Not that I have not had good shaves in between, but for some reason yesterdays was really special. Very smooth and refreshing!

    Cheers!
