    Awesome shave Bill. I think if you keep falling off the wagon, you must included invitations to the BBQ or ice cream penance.

    Shavemac Synthetic
    SV Desert Vetiver Shave Soap
    Fine Green Vetiver Aftershave

    I decided to break out the Desert Vetiver and Shavemac synthetic for today's shave. These two items are a face lathering dream. The scent of Desert Vetiver is green and fresh working wonderfully with the Shavemac's softness and backbone. Three passes and touch ups ended in a drama free BBS shave. A splash of Fine Green Vetiver sealed the deal. I hope everyone has a great Sunday.

    Sunday's Shave

    Gillette Tech
    Gillette Silver Blue (1)
    Semogue 1520 Boar
    Stirling Electric Sheep
    T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Brut Splash-On
    Stirling Unscented Glacial ASB

    Today, I went with another stiff boar bristle brush in an effort to sink the last of the Electric Sheep soap. I believe I made a wise choice.
    3 passes with the Tech provided a very comfortable and efficient result this morning with only some very slight irritation on the lower neck. I should have used my pseudo-ATG pass there on the first pass instead of the second (it just seems to work better for me). Seeing all of the conversations mentioning Brut, I decided to join the fun and splash some on today. It always reminds me of my paternal grandfather. I also enjoyed using the makeshift scuttle setup again today and it kept the lather moderately warm throughout the shave.

    Here is the superb bowl lathered Electric Sheep:

    Here is the "double boiler" makeshift scuttle setup:

    Finally, here is all that remains of the Electric Sheep after today's shave. It's not enough for another shave so I can finally say R.I.P.
