30th focus shave
I will complete my 30th consecutive shave with the Parker SRX shavette later today. My focus began on December 29 and will continue into February. I made progress toward my goal of developing routine near-BBS proficiency in two passes with the shavette. I used half DE blades, except for the current one, for two shaves each. I completed a side-by-side comparison of Rapira Swedish Supersteel and Lord Super Stainless DE blades, concluding that blade choice generally doesn't matter in the shavette.
I nearly consumed a container of Soap Commander
Love. The infamous doughnut has appeared, so I clearly have
Love on the Run. (Yes, that could be a 1970's song or a movie title.) I also used C.O. Bigelow cream and Third Pass Shaving Co.
Active Duty soap, as well as four different shaving brushes. I even learned how to get better lathers with the synthetic knot in my 30DC LE brush.
It was fun welcoming new members into the 30DC and riding along with everyone. A shout out to
@NCoxSTL for leading this small band of renegade shavers, aspiring comedians, enablers, and Piggly Wiggly shoppers.
See you in February!
