I've been using this set up for the last few days and enjoying some great shaves. I got away from my daily shave routine during the move, and it feels good to be back. Two passes and a few touch ups does the trick. My first pass is mostly WTG, and the second is mostly ATG. Results have been DFS+.
As a special welcome to
@BlueShaver, one of TSD's newest members, I've hereby coined a new term for an advanced shaving technique. It's similar to blooming a puck of shave soap. Just add a few drops of water to your shave cream to
Bluem it. It is the act of
Blueming, and those that have mastered the technique are called
Bluemers. Again, it's an advanced technique reserved only for those wishing to take their shaves to the next level. And unlike
@Primotenore, I choose not to copyright my terms. I freely and gladly submit them to one and all for the advancement of shavedom.
I have a big day in store. I'm attending two 1st birthday parties for some very special children. Sweet kids, parties, balloons, gifts, cake, and ice cream...doesn't get much better than that. The only thing missing is STL BBQ.
It has been fun following along this month. I enjoy seeing all the cool gear, reading about your shaving adventures, and just sharing life with this demented group of misfits and otherwise unsavory characters.
I hope you all have a great day.
