    Cold Water Wash
    Proraso Pre-Shave
    Kiss My Face Cool Mint
    Jayaruh #326
    Micromatic Open Comb
    Gem Blue Star CS SE
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. However, after a discussion about Proraso Pre-Shave earlier, I decided to use it on today's shave. After the CWR, I applied the Proraso. It has a very nice feel and added another level of slickness to the shave. The Kiss My Face Cool Mint Shaving Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #326 synthetic horse brush. I did two passes with the Micromatic Open Comb razor with a Gem Blue Star CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    It's Shave Cream Week!!!

    Schick E3 razor
    Personna blade
    FS/WD Boar brush
    Taconic Eucalyptus Mint SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Taconic Eucalyptus Mint A/S

    Lovely shave to start the week with. The E3 is a dream to use; close, comfortable and very efficient. I really like it. I also really really like the Frank Shaving/Whipped Dog boar brush. The FS handle feels great in hand and the WD boar knot is exceptional (to me) in that it is very very soft and makes great lathers so easily. It's hard not to use it every day, it's that good. Anyway, enough of me rambling. All is well and my face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    CB64ECF7-34AC-426C-BB3A-9387BB231ABC.jpeg Good morning gents,

    My Menthol Monday Extravaganza:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/7 AM day 4
    Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
    Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
    B&M Arctique AS Splash

    Yikes, I can hardly feel my face after this menthol assault. Any colder and it would have disintegrated. (But did I ever enjoy this shave and I got BBS!)

    Have a great week!

    Ever-Ready Shovelhead on a Weber Bulldog Handle

    Second test run of the shovelhead this morning. This a great razor and does an amazing job.
    No weepers or nicks. Just a nice comfortable shave with very little alum burn. I completed two passes and cleaned up a few areas on the neck.
    Finished up with some Nivea post balm and Clubman classic

    Y'all take care and have a great day!
