Hot water prep
Greaves razor - Badger brush - CADE sc - cold water splash - Thayer's Green resplash - Floid asb - hot towel - Pinaud Bay Rum as
An okay shave. A bit hurried and two unnecessary nics. Art Blakey in the background which perhaps wasn't the right mood. Never-mind. Have a great week gentlemen.
Sunday Shave and Haircut

Hot Water Wash, Merkur 37C Slant, Semogue 1305, C.O. Bigelow, Nivea Double Action Balm, Acqua Di Selva
What a fantastic razor. I think I prefer the Dorco blades to the Astra. Dorco Stainless steel blades just seem a bit more toothy and a bit more aggressive. Yesterday I think I over watered this cream a bit but today was perfect. Dome and face both catfish belly smooth
Cheers Paul, much appreciated! :beer1:Quote:

Great SOTD's to-day, Men! :rock:
The thin Wosty was not the best pick for a 4 day growth, but sang along after a bit of first pass digging!
Great feeling to get it all gone and smooth! :y
Big week coming up! Let's all preservere! :D

Sunday shave on a gorgeous afternoon.
Hot Shower, Stephan's rubbed into the whiskers (running out, need to order more)
Warm Oil
Dirty Bird Scuttle
Custom Badger Brush
Razorock Caprician Lemon Shave Soap
Fily DT 13, 6/8, Full Hollow
SRD P1 Strop, 75 laps
Razorock Aluminum
Thayer's Lemon Witch Hazel
Vaseline for men
The edge was perfectly dialed in and gave a really comfortable shave. The Razorock soap lathered up really nicely today and gave the odor of a spring day with the bathroom window open and the cool air entering the room.
I really enjoyed my shave today and I passed the BBT with SWMBO.
Enjoy the day!!!
