    Another fantastic photo with great gear, Gary! You do a great job using the sunlight.

    It's a great combo by my nose. Now that I have the Tuscan Oud, I can compare the two to start understanding/detecting the individual Oud scent.

    What you described with the lather suddenly appearing reminds me of using a soap stick. Doesn't usually look like much on the face until the brush makes it explode. Fine shave, Joe!

    Sunday's Shave

    Gillette Postwar Tech
    Gillette Silver Blue (4)
    Wild West Brushworks 'Renaissance'
    RazoRock 'Son of Zeus' Shaving Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    RazoRock 'Son of Zeus' Aftershave

    I decided to try another new soap/AS set today and it turned out to be another good purchase. The scent is terrific, although I had an idea what was coming because I have a similar sample of Fine L'Orange Noir.

    2 easy passes for a DFS+ result today with no mishaps or irritation. I've really enjoyed using some of my Gillette razors lately that haven't seen much action in a while.

    Thanks Andrew! As I was lathering, I was thinking the same thing. I will be doing the same technique for tomorrow's shave.

    Thank you, Gary! I'm sure the flat bottom Tech would look great in gold.

    Thank you, Joe!
    I wish I knew what was going on with the handle color though. It's like a lacquer finish is wearing away.

    Thanks Andrew.....certainly looking forward to Osage. A reviewer said he thinks it can be used year-round. At my first go with it, I'll decide if he is out of his mind or that he might have a point.

    I use Proraso all year round and will probably do the same with Cryogen. Why not? You are in a heated bathroom and as long as you stay inside for a time, then I don't see any reason not to use it anytime you want to do so.

    Wonderful shave and photo Jeff. I enjoy my shaves my way and feel others should do the same.

    Looking good Amigo. Love that brush.

    Very nice Gary.


    Fantastic Andrew.

    I agree completely! We each have our own shave fu, if you will. This hobby of ours is truly multifaceted, and people enjoy whatever aspects of shaving that works for them!
