    Just the Basics June!

    June 10

    Razor - Feather SS Artist Club (pain stick)
    Blade - [​IMG]
    Soap - Oleo Soapworks El Caballero
    Brush - 30DC LE Meet Up w/ SynBad bulb
    Post - Alum

    A bit early tonight but it just worked out that way. Since I started a "basic pain stick" pattern with the CJB I just moved on to another one. The Feather SS was my second pain stick and is definitely a higher quality build than the CJB. However, it features that "safety lip" on the holder that changes the shave juuuuuuusssssssssst a tad. Enough that the first shave with it is usually a bit of a back and forth on getting the angle handled. Fresh Feather Pro blade to make sure it's deadly because, after all, what's the point of a pain stick if it can't inflict pain? El Caballero with the Meet Up brush was a quick and easy super slick lather producer and set the stage well. The first couple of strokes took just a bit of adjusting to get that angle going but once I had it it stuck. Three very nice and smooth passes with no pain or blood which is a very good thing. Alum was a bit warm on my neck from the final touch up I did but other than that, no issues at all.

    We're a day closer to the weekend and that's a very good thing! Have a great Thursday!!
