    Straight Razor Shave #351
    10/8 Max Sprecher (62)
    Catie's Bubbles Tuxedo Brush
    Proraso Green SS and AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 31 hrs

    I prefer shaving at night because I am not under pressure and I can enjoy my shave that much more than if I did a shave in the morning. It was a nice "warm" day so I decided to use the Proraso Green. I made a nice, voluminous, and slick lather because this soap just loves water.

    Before the shave, I decided to refresh Max with Chromium Oxide (Crox) that I pasted on my strop because during yesterday's memorial tribute shave to my mom, I noticed that the razor was a little tuggy and not as sharp. I had 50 shaves with it before my first refresh and now 11 shaves later, it needed to be refreshed again. The good news was that Max was passing the hair above the arm test without a problem so I knew that this was going to be a 2 pass shave without touchups.

    True to form, I did a 2 passer without any cuts, and irritation. It was a a near BBS shave. The alum block didn't give me any stings, or zings whatsoever. I ran that block a few times on my face and neck to make sure there wasn't any feedback from the alum. It tells me that it was a very close and comfortable shave. I finished my postshave with witch hazel and the matching aftershave. This was a wow shave! Take care.

    Thanks Daniel. I like Proraso. I am at the bottom of the container and probably have about 15 to 20 shaves left.
