    Sounds like a rough road ahead.

    Playing catchup again here, just love the madness Christmas brings, traffic, crowds, visitors, last minute shopping trips and don't get me started on wrapping. Beautiful pics and excellent reports guys. I will post my reports later today. Hope everyone is ready for Santa!

    Hello every one!
    Early morning with nothing planned!
    How'd that happen? Don't look a gift horse in the mouth!
    First day in weeks I can take it easy, the whole day :):).
    So I started a new focus, or gearing up for one anyway....
    20181224_055631.jpg
    Razor- first pass Giesen & Forsthoff Solingen straight
    Razor- second pass H Boker & Co.
    Magnetic stratght
    Razor- third pass MMOC
    Soap- Stirling Bay Rum
    Brush- Omega badger
    Finish- Nivea

    Not the best shave by far, I've only drug a straight over the cheeks a few times. This morning I did a whole pass with each.
    Using two different sizes to try to figure out what one I like. Seems that the wider one does the flat places nice, but the narrower one does the chin area better. Did get a nick just below the adams apple. I landed wrong at a start of a stroke, nothing big, but it did bleed a little. So I finished off with my MMOC, did the 3 pass head shave using my MMOC, nice and smooth but my neck is itchy and has some red spots, my right cheek is complaining some too, they will be alright soon, but....
    Might try just the first pass with a straight till the "shaking" goes away ;).
    I admit I am a bit nervous, but not any more so than when I drug a DE over my face the first time.
    Guess I'll see what tomorrow brings.
    To all a great Christmas!
    Enjoy

    Sounds pretty good for a first time doing complete passes. I applaud the effort.

    December 24th
    Razor: Supply Co Lvl2
    Blade: Schick Proline (4)
    Brush: Envy White Eight Ball
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: JoHS Tobacco Bay Leaf
    Thayers Cucumber witch hazel
    AS: JoHS Tobacco Bay Leaf

    Good morning!

    Excellent shave to start the day. Three passes, BBS result.

    Last three shaves have been with Jeeves of Hudson Street, wonderful stuff both in performance and scent. I did some window shopping at the JoHS site after my shave. I did keep it at just window shopping.

    Have a great day!

    You change that by saying something you regret.

    I showed restraint this morning. Not so much yesterday. I ordered some brushes from PAA.

    I've been doing that my whole adult life. The first time, I said, "I Do"..:shocked003:

    The second one is much better, by far!
