August 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thank you Perry.

 

Great shave Danny.
For a close shave, 9 is the number .

Thank you Terry. Razor Rock, Yaqi and APS Shave Co have some excellent choices to give synthetic brushes a try.

 

Thanks Clint.....I am doing fine. Mom is still in denial about dad not coming home and we are dealing with that. I don't know how much of it is memory problems or her just being difficult. Take care!

 

Thanks Terry. ....9 is the magical number!

 

Hey Jim, sounds like a well chosen shave to say the least.
Nice
Good luck on the meeting and the traffic.

A little enabling this morning. Grabbed this while going out the door to work. I am sitting at my desk nibbling on this stuff. If you have not tried this stuff you are missing out.

Thank you!

 

Thank you, Terry!

I would certainly think so, but I'm not sure of the difference between a cake soap or a puck.

 

Thank you! Get it done has become most of them these days!

 

Well, perhaps no difference in performance, but put a Williams cake next to any Stoylin puck soap-that's what I meant-their appearance.

Proraso PS Red
Razorock Blue Fougère SS
Zenith Aluminum 2 Band Badger
Feather DX AC (kamisori style)
Feather AC ProGuard
Razorock Blue Fougère AS Splash

2.5 pass DFS today. Couple of weepers, both set down errors on the first pass using a new Feather blade....oops. No biggie, the Razorock AS took care of them quickly with little feedback. The Feather PG blade, even with the extra 'help' of the guards, absolutely demands up front attention and a light touch. The Zenith 2 band created an incredible smelling slick lather from the matching Razorock shave cream. This handle easily scratches....seen just from the in/out of a brush holder (which I've since rectified by a soft covering on the arms). The Zenith 2 band badger knot easily matches the quality of the knots used in either my Darwin Drake brush or Wild West Brush Works.

Thanks all for the kind words, comments and responses yesterday!

Another busy day.....podiatrist visit for Dad, 4 taxi trips to the HS for daughter's band practices, and OH..yeah, gotta get some work done. But, I'm fresh shaven and smelling wonderful!

Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

Thank you!

 

Great shave for a very busy man! Hang in there Blair.

 

Hard to beat a Slim with a Voskhod!

 

Excellent photo and shave recap Blair. Aluminum scratches very easily. With metal handled brushes, I gave up using a brush holder to avoid the scratches.

 

Classic shave.

 

Excellent shave and photo, Blair! I may have asked this recently, but how would you describe the Blue Fougere scent from RazoRock?

I gave our band kids a few days off to get school going. Hectic enough as it is. We'll practice again Friday after school and then we perform at a community event at the school on Saturday evening. Busy times!
