I havent been shaving but once a week. This time it was about 10 days. Also only used the same razor. I noticed a few thing. What use to irritate me at 4 days of stubble. Doesnt irritate me anymore. My Le Grelot which always had a touch of harshness to it no longer does. Now she is nice and smooth. I never want to go that long again. LOL! I had a little rash from my stubble curling back and stabbing myself.
Have a great day guys!

Result: I am in San Francisco for work, so I walked early this morning for a killer breakfast at a fine place in Union Square. I was already in a good mood, but the breakfast made me feel even better. This is my travel stuff, although, at times, I use these things at home as well. I am not a huge fan of Mama Bear's soaps, but it does it's job just fine. I learned I prefer tallow based soaps, just my preference. Now, off to get some work done. Good day to you all!

The Day? cloudy and warming!>8ºC. The Shave? A smooth and interesting shave after the Cleaver. I really had to concentrate! Everybody played nice and I received a close shave in two and a touch.
The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!
