Another routine, smooth 3 passer this morning. Dialed the BB back a bit this morning to 5. No discernible difference.
Have a great day all!

 

Great photo and setup, Jim! The Stirling For Him is a great scent.

 

Awesome photo, Clint! You've really hit it off well with the O.R.E.N razor.

 

Thank you, Bruce!

Great photo and shave, Jason!

 

Terrific picture, Jason!

 

Thank you, Bruce!

 

Another excellent photo and lineup Jason. I hope your week has been going well.

 

Thank you Bruce. For almost 2 years I used a Mongoose with Feather Super blades over 50% of my shaves. I absolutely love the artist club razors and the OREN continues that streak.

 

Great photos, gentlemen!

Throwing yourself at the ground and missing is the secret to flying.

 

It's a steep learning curve.

 

Good morning, 30DC!

 

Great setup, Brian!

 

Excellent photo, Jason!

 

Sometimes referred to as "residual slickness". I tend to slightly overlap passes and choose my regular soap rotation for soaps that offer the ability to make a partial second pass without totally relathering.

That's a good looking brush Jason.

 

Good morning Chris.

 

Good morning, Chris.

A big “thank you” goes out to Clint @clint64 for this brush (and for a SWEET brush handle that will make an appearance here sometime - hopefully soon).
This little fella does a great job making a lather, and holds quite a bit of soap for its size. I only did two passes and a little touch up, but there was plenty of lather for another pass or two. I agree with Jared that synths don’t have the personality like a natural hair brush, however, they work very, very well. Every time I use one, I wonder why I don’t use them more often. I’m going to run this one at least for the rest of the week, and plan to put it in my normal haphazard rotation of sorts.

One little weeper on my chin (I think there was a small blemish that got sliced off), otherwise a fantastic shave with smooth results - even my “nemesis” around my Adam’s Apple wasn’t an issue today, for whatever reason.




Have a great Tuesday, fellas!

Great looking photo Bruce. I am glad to see that you enjoy the brush.
