    Feb. 27/2017 Monday

    Razor: Fat Boy (set on 6)
    Blade: Personna Comfort Coated (1)
    Cream: Proraso Red
    Brush: VDH Badger
    Pre Shave: DIY
    AS: Hibco Butter Balm
    Newspaper Date: Nov. 22.1944

    I had forgotten how great Fat Boy is, given the fact that I`ve been trying a bunch of different razors. With 2 passes, WTG/ATG and a minor clean-up, I do believe a BBS is in order. Happy Camper wishing the same or better for all. God Bless.

    It is a nice simple Bay Rum and is available for under $3 a bottle at a bodega across the street from my work. Honestly if I couldn't get it that easily, I would probably skip the after shave.

    Monday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Bath Soap-Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: Barrister & Mann Seville
    Razor: Maggard V2 Open Comb
    Blade: Rapira Swedish Supersteel (3)
    Brush: Thater 2-Band Silvertip-26mmx55mm
    Aftershave: Burberry Brit

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    Barrister & Mann Seville today. 20 seconds to load the Thater Silvertip. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Rapira Swedish Supersteel still in the Maggard V2 OC. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Burberry Brit EdT.

    Took a shave free day at Princess Lakes yesterday, so with two day o' stubble, I kept with the Menthol-Monday tradition.

    *Noticeable change in the tips evident in the photo; giving the brush a thicker appearance.

    This was the last shave with the Polsilver. I pushed it to its proverbial limits. BBB. (Blade Bank Bound)
    Have a great week.

    A great thick lather.
    After three passes there was still plenty left, but the face was already BBS.
