very cool.

 

Well this turned out to be an ordeal. I ordered what I thought was the Post Shave Lotion because that's what it says it is in the title on Walmart's web page. I didn't pay attention to the pictures on there which is of the after shave liquid cologne. And that's what I received today, the aftershave liquid cologne instead of the post shave lotion. Nivea's own web page for the post shave lotion even has a Buy Now button on it that links to the bad Walmart listing web page.

Anyway, just got off of the phone with Walmart's customer service. They told me to keep it and they refunded my money. It smells fantastic but I don't use after shave liquid colognes. I use Christian Dior Sauvage and Hugo Boss colognes. So I will probably put this in the current Traveling Mystery Box which is due to be mailed to me next.

 

Every time I see this, I really I feel the need to get it. What's this called ...... oh yeah ..... Enabling.

 

I'm pretty sure it was just a difference in labeling. Mine doesn't say "Bourbon and Vanilla" as some others that bought it at the same time I did about a year ago but they ALL have that scent. Just some say the scent and I assumed newer labeling dropped the scent on the label.

 

One is a thicker lotion and the other one is a liquid like cologne. They sell both in the DEEP line. Walmart just has the title listing wrong on the aftershave liquid and I didn't really pay enough attention to the pictures to notice the difference.

 

Gotcha, I guess calling it a cologne threw me as it's just like any other aftershave. Just has a scent. Glad they straightened it out for you

 

It sure smells nice, I'll definitely give it that.

 

This brush looked lonely ........



Not perfect, but it'll feel right at home with me.

 

very cool..

 

Thank you Gary, it's one of the older brands I didn't have and pick it up for less than 30% of retail ..... I'm pretty happy

 

Beautiful, Keith. Who manufactured this brush? Trumper? or do they just use their brand?

 

I believe it's a real Trumper. I got a deal due to a small chip in the side at the base.

 

I’ve got a Karve brass D plate coming. I’ve been running with the C plate for the last year or two but am looking more a bit more efficiency so that my Karve razor will more closely match my Rex Envoy and GC 0.84. I typically shave M, W, and Friday and I like to swap out these three razors.

 

I recently receive a Karve and really enjoy the D plate's efficiency.

 

Yet another brush on its way ......



A Hardright barber duster ..... soon to be a Hardright barbershop shaving brush.

 

What size knot do they take ?

 

Well only an educated guess (with a NOS in my haircutting kit), I'd say a 24mm. My thoughts are to remove the duster top and replace it with a shorten 1 1/4" copper cap (cut down to a ~1/4" high) Well that's the plan and plans can change.
