July 2018 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

It's pleasant this week-end, but will be humid again Tues. Glad you like Le Pere Lucien.

 

Beautiful picture, Clint.

Cool effect, Jim! That's my inspiration for tomorrow's shave.

Thank you, Jim!

 

July 8th
Razor: Rex Ambassador (6.5)
Blade: Personna Lab Blue (4)
Brush: Yaqi HM Silvertip
Pre shave: Stirling mentholated
Soap: SS Lollipop Citrus
Lucky Tiger face tonic
AS: Fine Italian Citrus

Good morning gentlemen!

I opened the Rex up all the way this morning. Two pass with touch up shave. DFS result. I did the ear to adams apple pass on my neck, ended up with a bit of redness in the hollows of my neck where the skin is rough and bumpy. I pass I normally skip but on occasion I give it a try.

Yard work day today. I think I'll fire up the smoker and toss a couple of tri tips on.

Have a great day!

I hear that. I don’t even need a rod to make it a better day than being at work.

And on the bright side, my fishing gear AD’s keep my shaving AD’s at bay. It’s another hobby that makes shaving seem cheap.

 

Another magazine quality photo. Fantastic.

 

Great shave. Question: Do you find much difference in the shaves between the various Gillette TTO’s you have?

 

Great photo. Yaqi actually nailed a handle that looks like it could be a custom from Doug Korn.

 

Thank you Gents and a unicorn. I am doing alright this morning.

 

Thanks, Jared.

Love the filter effect. So far what has been your favorite SS of the month?

.

Gorgeous photo and brush. The handle looks custom made.

 

Thank you, Clint.

Terrific picture, Jim!

 

Thank you, Jared. They are all definitely similar, but there are a few differences. The rounder head on the earlier razors makes for just a bit of a steeper angle. Certainly, none of them are aggressive, but I could see where the steeper angle would give someone an impression of more aggressiveness.

 

Thank you, Clint! I still like the Ranger Tech the best. They all shave very similarly, but there is something about this razor I just like.

Jared, I'm glad you got a much needed break from work. I couldn't think of a nicer way to spend your time. That's a beautiful lake.

 

Sweet set up, Clint. The OneBlade is quite a change from the Rocnel. That's a beautiful brush too. Enjoy your lazy day. Maybe you'll have time to peruse a few watch websites.

 

Wonderful photo Charlie. Are you still enjoying the LPL?
