April 2017 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Toyota!

 

He's really growing, Andrew! You are your Bride are blessed for sure!

I'm always glad when you share photos of him with us!

 

Aye!

 

Day 13 of 30 days of Henckel straights

Yesterday I switched from ABC to MDC because the lather is not as critical as it was when I first started using a straight. So, I will be switching soaps as the mood fits me. Today I used Provence Sante.

Another day with the 7/8 Henckel, another 2 pass shave, and another 90% BBS and 10% DFS. At the risk of sending myself to the hospital tomorrow with a 7 inch slice in my face, I will say that I think I am getting the hang of using straights.

April 8, 2017- Interlude

Razor: Schick J1 Injector
Blade: Personna Hair Shaper (1)
Brush: Razorock Plissoft 22
Post: Alum, Listerine

I'm probably going to go with the Schick Adjustable for next week, but wanted to take a moment and pull out my favorite Injector (so far), the humble J1. This was a bit of a test run as I just started using the Personna blades last month and, then, only in the M3.

Thoughts? I really enjoyed today's shave (not that I usually don't). The J1 seems to pair nicely with the Personna and I think, in generalely , I prefer them more than the Chick blades. I definitely heard the clicks of a baby dolphin in the room.

On final thought... I definitely prefer Listerine as a post-shave than as a part of a dental hygiene regiment.

 

Chicago will do that to anybody.

 

Great idea! I'm in .

 

Great travel lineup Perry. Sounds like you have had a great time.

 

Lovely brush.

Thanks, but as the saying goes, "not only 'No', but 'HELL no' ".

 

I will see your Colorado and raise you one Tundra. Or drive over the top of it if you prefer.

So we're going there are we?

 

Well this is the un-hijackable thread.
