    March Madness/Shavettes

    March 1

    Razor - Gillette New SC Deluxe/CJB Greager
    Blade - [​IMG] (3) [​IMG]
    Soap - Stirling Ozark Mountain/Arko
    Brush - 30DC Meet UP w/ TGN Badger/VDH Boar
    Post - Alum

    And away we go! Well, away I go anyway. Lots of you already got gone. If you know what I mean. It's March and that means Shavettes and other madness. I still have a shave left on the New SC Deluxe so I'm using it tonight, but in the spirit of jumping in with a shavette I did my head shave with the CJB pain stick. I had two weeks growth which is when I normally use a painy on my head, so it fit well. Voskhod in the Gillette, Feather Pro in the CJB. Ozark Mountain from Stirling on my face, Arko (to get ready for April) on my head. 30DC Meet up brush w/badger for my face, VDH boar for the head shave.

    Head shave first and it was a dandy. Once I get the angle set it is smooth sailing for this shave. The pain stick does such a good job of instant reduction and leaves everything super smooth. Arko is plenty slick and cushy for the job so nor worries, cuts, or blood. Even did some XTG work to get things nice and smooth. The Feather Pro blade is not fresh in this razor but it worked well and I discarded after the shave. I'm guessing it has at least half a dozen head shaves and a few face shaves on it. So time to insert a new one next time I use it this month.

    Face shave was luxurious as always. Ozark Mountain is a fabulous scent and the SC and Voskhod were perfect together as always. Great BBS finish from the top of my head to the top of my shoulders! Great way to start the month. Have a great Monday!!

    The Coronavirus issue may be alarming, but unemployment is the real problem in Italy.
    Problem that, in my opinion, could be easily solved: I myself could easily employ a couple of people, full time.
    The real problem is not that there is no job: it is that they want to get paid for it!

    Here is a fantastic late autumn day, cold and foggy, perfect for Soek and Chet Baker and I enjoyed it all!
