    Day three in the Ambassador Suite and things are beginning to drag.
    Even on setting four there was a little drag. On the second pass I made the lather thinner hoping that would help but the drag was still there.
    Maybe it's because of the chunky SB, I honestly don't know.
    What I do know though, is the finished shave was very good and no feedback from the alum, so a successful if somewhat confusing shave.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Menthol Monday's Shave

    zcws.gif

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Ingram Shaving Cream
    Semogue SOC
    GEM Frankenskeene (Damaskeene base with wooden "Darwin" handle)
    Sha-Ve-Zee SE
    CWR
    Thayers Peach WH
    Florida Water

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Ingram Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Semogue SOC brush. I did two passes with the GEM Frankenskeene Razor with a Sha-Ve-Zee SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Good morning friends. Excellent three pass shave today with the Muhle R41 loaded with a Personna blade. Fantastic lather from the Italian Barber Amici shave soap. I finished with Old Spice... smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️
