Thread: Beard growing contest/Not shaving for a month??

That's pretty typical. Shaving off long growth will give a ultra close, smooth as glass shave. Feels good, doesn't it?

Other than the first time I shaved with no cuts or razor burn, this is the most rewarding/best feeling shave yet.

I'm waiting on the wife to get off her phone so I can pull the pictures off of it.

Oh come on, a "few" leaks in your mask won't hurt you much, i mean you have to take it off and breath the gas anyway...don't you?

LOL the CS gas is like... breathing hot sauce. I don't really mind it and they use such a small amount these days.

I wish our guys would use just a little, they like to make it pretty bad for us. Last time we got to go in with out or masks and put them on once we got inside, not fun

Sorry about the wait. Here are the pictures of my shave!

Damn Brooksie that looked like so much fun. Its always when I cut several days of growth off I feel more satisfied then just a day or so.

Well, turns out I'm pretty impatient.

I'm chopping off this beard 1 week early. I can't take the itchy/tingly feeling any more.

I'm off to shower, video wil be up soon!

Cheers!

Ok, All done!

What isn't shown on the video is my prep.
HOT shower, Shampoo and conditioner (beard)
Proraso pre-shave.

I used an uber lather of Mitchels wool fat, TOBS Almond and 6 drops glycerine.

I had my scuttle pre-heating while I showered, so the lather was nice and hot!

Razor was Tuckmar 5/8 round point gifted to me by brooksie.

Here is the link to the vid. Sorry about all the unnessasary stuff. I was going
to edit it etc, but my computer is terrible and I didn't want to wait 5+hours
for it to compile the vid.

If i knew that the Tuckmar I gave you shaved that well I might have just kept it.... I only shaved once with her before gifting it to you
