August 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Great shave, Paul! Gotta watch that pressure!

 

Thanks, Andrew!

 

Thank you Jeff, and you're so right. It's a two-step process- 1)-make sure there's enough soap at the edges...2)-go with care. If all else fails, I'll just grow a Fu Manchu lol.

 

Fantastic lineup and shave report Jeff. I hope you have a great day.

 

Thanks, Clint! At least the power’s back! I'm scheduled to teach a make-up class via Zoom tonight which I failed to deliver on Tuesday, but otherwise things look good! Enjoy your day! I’d go out for a cruise in the TR6 this afternoon, but the weather says otherwise!

Last night we had some serious thunderstorms roll through. On the positive side it seemed to wipe out the humidity for the walk this morning. This Antica Barberia/Mondial boar has broken in nicely. I picked it up off of the bay shipped from Australia for under $30 and really like the matte finish on the handle. As expected the A&E Dirty Ginger was easy to load and lather. Three passes and touch ups did not quite catch the baby so I went for a 4th pass on my lower right neck. Overall a wonderful shave to start the weekend. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

 

My daughters, Asha & Maya, have gone to visit my Mom and take her lunch. So I’m left dog sitting Cody until they return later today.

Nice shave and report Paul!

 

Thanks Andrew! I did use the spent Stirling Sandalwood tub for my Fine Italian Citrus soap. I am not buying puckless soaps anytime soon, but will use the empty Cryogen tub to hold other things.

Thanks Clint that I will!

Thanks Jeff! You too as well!

 

Fantastic setup, shave and photo, Clint! I heard those same thunderstorms in the distance last night, but we only got a slight sprinkle here. Yard work is on my agenda today, so I hope the sky stays clear and the humidity steers clear. Hope you enjoy your Saturday!

 

Handsome dog!

 

Saturday's Shave

Schick E2 Textured Finish
Personna Blade
Wild West Brushworks 'Renaissance'

Great start to the day! Only 2 passes and a few touch-ups with the Schick E2 resulted in a surprise BBS finish.

I hope y'all have a great Saturday!

 

Thank you Andrew. It poured rain here last night. The storm just parked and rained itself out. Good luck with the yard work.

Good morning!

Excellent shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

I got out of work yesterday after eight hours. After so many twelve hour workdays eight hours flew by. I got most of my yard work done when I got home in preparation for the lazy weekend. I do have a sprinkler line that needs to be repaired but I have the rest of the weekend to get that taken care of.

Have a great day!

Yes, but I'm among friends here.

 

Thank you Andrew. He’s a 40 mph coach potato.

Exceptional shave and photo, Jim! I hope you are able to make time to relax a bit. It sure sounds like you need it.
