Yesterday I received my order from BullGoose. There are the items that I am going to try for the first time Friday or Saturday.
I am excited. The shaving cream smells amazing. I've been using canned goo for so long that this is like a luxury cream. I know it's not but you get the gist.
Enjoy.Attachment 67504
Hello, PaulCam:
That's a good load. Congratulations. I have a variation of that Omega brush and it's a good one. Here's to many good shaves.
Regards,
Obie
Congrats! I really enjoy the Musgo Real cream - it's one of the few that I use, the rest being soaps. Enjoy!
Thats a fine looking Omega brush you have there. I happen to like the brushes with "faceted" style lucite, or acrylic handles, they give me a nice comfortable grip ; )
Nice gear Paul, you're off to a great start! I am excited for you!!!
Very nice kit of shaving gear!
Enjoy them, they will surely serve you well:)
Congrats!
Good start, PC! It seems the force is strong in you and did homework, you did! (Sorry for the cheesy Yoda reference!)
Don't worry if you "missed" on a few items (not suggesting you did), because it won't be long until your entire bathroom is overflowing with all types of shaving gear!
Congrats and here's to a great "1st" shave!
Fantastic assortment,will serve you well,you just need a Razor:)
Nice setup Paul.
What are you going to use all of this with?
Thanks. I like the look of these handles myself. But I do see myself getting a few more. Oh yeah, like yesterday, in Target, I picked up a "Shea Moisture" Badger Bristle brush for $9.00. I couldn't pass that up.Quote:

He has some really cool old razors from way back when his dad ran the barber shop. I don't want to cheat him either, I want to give some cash for some of them unless he insists on letting me have them. I see myself using a straight maybe in the summer time.Quote:

Oh nice haul indeed, but watch out for those Derby Verts; they ruined my face, and I hope your luck is better than mine.Quote:

Man! I looked all over for one of those when I first heard they could be found at Target. Apparently not in my area though! I've got a new brush on the way from bestshave.net via a forum member here so I'm not too upset. But maybe when I go down for my mother-in-law's college graduation in may, I'll scope out the Target stores down that way.Quote:

P.S.- If you click on the little symbol at the lower right of each post you want to respond to, it will quote them for you in a multi-quote. (It's an upside down " with a + sign next to it: "+ ) Then on the last post you want to reply to click "reply with quote" and they will all be there. Sometimes for me that window's too small, so then I click "go advanced" and you get more room to work with all those quoted messages.
Thanks for that tip. I was wondering how that was done and now you've enlightened me.Quote:

The Merkur say action on Easter Day! I enjoyed it and liked the weight. Totally different than the Gillette.Quote:
