Hello, friends!

First day of Spring here in Virginia! Woo-hoo! What better way to celebrate it than with a nice shave with my favorite razor? I had taken a little 5-day sabbatical from the bare-blade straight, and used my Feather Artist Club instead to practice the more difficult strokes without having to worry about absolute sharpness. It really paid off. I can safely say that this was the best I've ever done with my chin and jaw-line, as I let the razor roll over them while caressing the whiskers away like there's no tomorrow.

Happy shaving!

Brush: Semogue 1250
Cream: Proraso green (sample)
Razor: Edwin Jagger head with Weber Bulldog handle
