Yesterday shave
Barbasol Pacific rush
Parker blade
46 contract teck
Love this can foam
Love the menthol
Thave was a+ almost to burn from the alum and the residual cool from the menthol made my face feel great!
I will be getting more menthol soaps in the future.

Omega 10049 Boar Brush
Timeless Lathering Bowl
Williams Mug Soap
CVS SE Blade
Gem – Push button
Nivea Post Balm
Pinuad Clubman Classic

I had a great classic shave this morning. I broke the boar brush out today. It has not seen soap in a while. The Williams and the Gem push button performed great. No weepers or nicks and a little alum warmth on the neck.

I have a few more SE razors that I want to try out this month but I am running out of month so this may carry over into March.

Finished up with Nivea and Pinaud Clubman Classic.

I have two gold push buttons. If someone has a chrome one that they are willing to trade for a gold one let me know.

Y'all take care and have a great hump day.

 

Great photo, Danny! Classic shave setup.

 

Nice setup! I like menthol as well.

 

I agree with Jim's assessment of Stirling's Bay Rum AS and soap. I tried the AS for the first time, and it was a slow building burn, but it wasn't uncomfortable.

 

Thanks Perry!

 

Them thangs are everywhere!

 

February 27th
GEM Junior
APShave Co flattop/Sapele handle
Asylum/SV Colonia SS & AS
Thayers

Another good shave with the Jr this morning. Got a very nice lather with the Colonia and had 3 enjoyable passes, which have left me very close to completely smooth. Not much else to say.
Have a great day, all!

 

Beautiful picture and gear. Love the little Chubby!. I hope you get to feeling better and soon.

 

Good morning to everyone.
Well, the Wool Fat didn't seem to do the trick at this time of year.
So I switched again to a soap that I can't remember ever using.
I also went for a different brush that has been sitting patiently on the rack.
Using the exact same tools the last 3 days and my MMOC with a new blade each time gave me a comfortable shave. The soap, although the slickness isn't like the other Suds I'm used to, it's still very, very good. For the price of the Razorock "What the Puck" soap I would say it's a challenger to any other soap and its price class, or better. This soap has a light citrusy smell that's pleasant and not overpowering. It's not one of my most favorite aromas, but I could use it everyday with no regrets.
I've been able to get very close shave with only one pass and excellent shaves with two passes. So I would say my technique has went places I never thought it would go.
Just in case fuzzy happens upon this post, I would like to acknowledge that I haven't bloomed any soaps the entire month of February. At this point, I see no reason to bloom any soaps, ever again.
+1 for fuzzy.
Looking at the clock I have to run....
To all
Enjoy

I was weary at first with menthol
because I thought I have kinda sensitive skin but then I realised I'm an idiot because I shower with dr broners pepermint and thats light menthol so I figured I was safe lol. Now I want to try some super mentholated stuff.

 

If we are going out for a meal and I forget my reading glasses, we will eat at Cracker Barrel. I have memorized their menu.

 

Thank you guys. While the blood pressure has not gone down, I am feeling well enough to drive to the client site. I have a couple of things that have to be done this morning. I think I will make it a short day.

 

Don't they have the extra large menu as well.

 

Great shave and photo Jim. You have really had a good run with the Fatboy this month.

Congrats on the continued progress.

Wonderful classic shave Danny.

Simply a beautiful shave Jason.

Great looking shave Terry.

 

Large print for senior citizens.

 

Thanks Clint.

 

Great looking combo, Gary. That old bottle looks fantastic!

Love the matching colours, Perry! That old Ever Ready looks great as well.

Loved your pic and your Bay Rum write ups today, Jim. Very informative.

Bang on about the Stirling Balms, Joseph. A little dab’ll definitely do. And a great soft face feel all day will follow.

Sorry to hear about your awful night and morning, Clint. You are very experienced with your pain, so hopefully a little time at home will make the difference, but please don’t delay too long if it doesn’t...

I’ve enjoyed following along with your recent Stirling pics, Jim. You have some Stirling scents that aren’t as common as some others. Which is your favourite?

Very nice sounding shave, Danny. I have been hit and miss with boars, but love all the big Omega knots.

Sounds like a good soap, Terry. Others have posted similar thoughts- fantastic at the price point.

 

Thanks Jason. Omega does a great job with their boars. I have had that one for about 4 years and was a main stay till I got my Razorock 400.
