Razor: Schick H1 'Hussy' injector
Brush: Zenith B02 boar
Soap: Stirling Green
Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Green aftershave

Easy shave with the Hussy this morning. I was a little more tentative with it for some reason and determined to use it more often because despite its funny looks it is a terrific razor. Nice shave in the end and smelling good with the Stirling Green scent.

Have a great day!

 

Great shave Rick . I love the AV ice blue.

Very nice Gary.

Thanks Clint!

 

Fine looking shave Clint.

Good morning!

Wonderful three pass shave that left me BBS.

My elbow felt much better last night so I was able to get some well deserved rest. Up early for a very pleasant spring like walk with the dog. I decided to try another one of the BSG samples Guy sent me, Davey Jones. BSG says the scent is woodsy with hints of amber. Really I couldn't say anything other than the scent was nice. I did prefer the bay rum and lime scent of Blackbeard. Three passes and touch ups just missed the baby. I felt in a vetiver mood today, so I decided on a splash of Fine Fresh Vetiver followed by Guerlain Vetiver EdT. Now I am clean shaven and smelling good, I am ready to trek to the office and deal with accounting woes. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.
