    Cold water splash

    Nice shave, but had to do my head as well after my clippers went south on me this morning. Single pass all around. Nice shave, no nicks.

    Enjoy your day.

    Sometimes one good pass is better than doing 3 and getting a nick trying for the BBS. I only do 1 on my head and it's enough.

    C&S Oxford and Cambridge
    Fine Lavender Aftershave

    A wonderful shave this morning. The CH2 synthetic ate through the Oxford & Cambridge whipping up a wonderful slick lather. Three passes and minimal touch ups ended with the baby just escaping. My nemesis, aka lower right neck, aided in the escape. A splash of Fine Lavender and I am off to work. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

    Excellent shave today! ER C-40 re-knotted with an Envy White Two Band, by @clint64 "The Brush Whisperer" whipped up some major odorous lather. Genesis went two passes with some cleanup on the neck and jawline. Finishing with juniper today! I am smooth and refreshed. I hope you all have a wonderful shave and a terrific Tuesday.

    That was the whole point! A shave that is easy, inexpensive (notice I didn't say cheap, there is a difference) and quality for the money. It performs at a price point higher than what it is. Great stuff.

    Well, the winter weather was a HUGE bust for Central Alabama. Didn't materialize at all. But, we're still out of school and having a random day off is terrific! Probably won't shave today and will continue letter S tomorrow with Soap Commander Vision.

    C24930FA-B319-48DE-9EBE-2A4C58988B35.jpeg Tuesday morning’s shave:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/7AM day 5
    Simply Bee SS
    Prep ASB
    Proraso Sandalwood AS Splash

    A dynamite BBS shave and let me say that this Simply Bee is a cracking good soap. (Just like every other one from South Africa!)

    A little bonus - my Dad loved this beautiful old Cossack song and I love it too!
