Thread: Grating Momma Bear

Your article offends me. It didnt include people who shave with horse hair brushes. I feel victomized!

I like how Tolkein wrote alot. As a result i suffered in modern creative writing classes in high school. You have good structure and really flow smooth. Infact i almostforgot i was reading. Good writing feels like knowledge just occuring in the mind!

I have an extremely sensitive skin and an extremely heavy beard. My face can only tolerate silvertip badger hair. That's why I dislike boar bristle and horse hair brushes, especially horse hair. I abhor pure grade badger and dislike best badger used in many Simpson brushes. Not only that, but if I am going to use Xpec, Martin de Candre, Santa Maria Novella, Czech & Speake and scores of other celestial soaps and cream, I figure they deserve silky tips — and so does my face.

Thanks for the compliment. A well written sentence is one of life's pleasures — like a sweet silvertip brush.

The subtlety of that comment makes me think that there is a European sence of humour lurking somewhere.

Actually, I am a full-blooded Assyrian — we're the people from the Bible. I was born in Baghdad, Iraq, lived in Tehran, Iran, until my early teens and then came to the U.S. So yes, there is some European influence, too.

Good heavens, this thread is flying all over the place.

Stay well,
Obie

Obie, please excuse my presumption regarding Europe. I did not mean that subtlety is just a European trait - as I'm sure you fully know.

I have 2 mamma bears in my rotation right now one is grated and one is not they both lather quick but by looking at the previous pictures I am using to much water mine is quite a bit thinner. Guess I need to back off a little bit and see what happens.

Just lathered exactly how obie told me. It turned out great! I was using siberian needle fir, a scent i really enjoy!

I find the brush loads much much faster with the mama bear being grated
