This isn't what I learned during my shave but after. One of my first shaving creams was Arko Extra Performance and I hated it, thought it lathered okay but was dry and not very slick. Well I just did a test lather with it and the stuff is miraculous! Very creamy, thick, slick lather and smells nice even though a bit faint. I owe all Arko lovers here an apology for all my Arko smack talk. What did I learn today!? That my lathering skills have improved!
I prefer my broken in boar brushes to any of the cast sitting in my cupboard. Badger is least favoured.
I learned that it's time to seriously downsize my den. Going back to bare essentials...and everything not in use will be passed onto my shave brothers.
I'm still in the induction phase. Not necessarily trying to acquire mass quantities but just trying to find my favorites. I have a lot of favorites lol. I'll take some of your junk
Hi. I am Chris from the National Straight Razor Disposal Service. Leaving spare straights around is not only wasteful, but it could imperil children and small animals alike. Think of the future and the children. If you find yourself in this condition, don't persist in contributing to the problem. Contact us and be part of the solution....
Chris, I have to admire the brutal honesty of your previous post in which you claimed to have nothing from your day's shave. On the positive side, at least you didn't take a backward step. From the above I also have to admire your shameless opportunism and entrepreneurial spirit. Once a player always a player? Regards, Chris
I learned from my last shave (Today) that I can't stay committed to a Rule or Focus for more then a few days. I like variety too much. Now to go into hiding so those in the Rule/Focus thread don't find me.
Now Chris how can we both be enablers and part of the solution without conflict of interest? And what if all those Ferrell SR's oops I mean spare SR's are all rusty and ugly do we just send he to Holy Rollah?
Entrepreneurial? No, Sir. Uncut benevolence and love for small children and animals alike. Safety first, that's what I always say.....
It's all about technique anyhow. Sticking to the hardware until you master it is the real key. I pretend to be all hardcore about rules, but I am actually not. Glad you're having fun!
