January 2017 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

It is definitely making its way around the country.

 

My barber has a sign that says
"Free haircuts, tomorrow"

 

Thanks very much Charlie. You are right, they work very well together.

 

Thank you, Clint. I hope your day has been good.

 

Yes, once I feel I have the angle dialed in correctly, I'll start turning it up to see how it goes. What's the worst that could happen?

 

Great setup amigo!

 

Thanks very much amigo.

Not all heroes wear capes.

 

I'm glad that little Ose is living his dream. He told me he wanted to be able to make an impact. Touch men in ways that they always remember, and in his small green way, be important.

 

Happy Anniversary January!!

January 29

Mostly Shavettes

Razor - Feather SS
Blade - (?)
Soap - Mitchell's Wool Fat
Brush - Semogue 620
Post - Alum

Three days left in January. Another fast month, or so it seems. I'll finish up on the Feather SS to complete the shavette theme, and use the Feather Pro blade. I still had one loaded up from the last time I used the razor but don't remember if this is the 2nd or 3rd shave on the blade. No matter. These blades easily go 7+ days. I'm sure it will go the next three.

The Semogue and Fat for a room filled with lather. Slick and very cushiony and a great feel. Even though I haven't used a pain stick for a bit I found the start to be automatic. Makes me happy that I don't have to think as much to start a shave with this razor now. Automatic angle and first stroke to get things started. Two full passes to a very nice DFS with no blood or other problems. Alum was just a bit warm but nothing out of the ordinary.

This shave was good enough that it sparked my interest in obtaining some other AC style razors at some point. I could see myself switching completely to this style at some point. Not sure when or where that point is but that may be in my future.

My weekend has arrived so I'll have some time to fully catch up around here. February thread will be up late tomorrow night for you early birds out there. I hinted at the theme last night - anyone have a clue yet?

 

Back on the prairie...too tired to shave right now, maybe later....or possibly one pass ATG glory tomorrow.

Your call.

 

No kidding, they are all fast now! Shavettes are where it's at! For reals...

 

It's all gravy until you get nuts with it.

 

You need to talk to my lawyer. You haven't paid January's licensing fees to use my likeness....

We'll let it slide until Tuesday.
