Gary.

 

oh yeah..in for another..

 

You're starting to come around, Jeff.

And I use MWF bath soap in my shave prep. Very moisturizing.

I hope you are doing well, my friend.

 

i love how the aged tease each other

 

Terrific shave! Love citrus scents! Enjoy your day Barry!

 

Don't worry Gary! Sixty will come pretty fast for you! Lol!

 

Joe. The Hampshire Wool Fat Lanolin Shaving Soap. (no.3) /4711 Original Cologne-ASL duo was a excellent combo, with the cooling Nivea Men Fresh Kick ASB, which finished the shave of wonderfully...Enjoy your Sunday.

 

In the last raffle, I believe Joanne had some TSD Shop prizes.

 

How did you come upon Lakewood, Danny?

 

I remember that she had the raffle, however, I thought it wasca one shot deal. If you go to the shop, then it looks open because you could order soaps and splashes while choosing a large number of fragrances.

 

Awesome, gents!

Absolutely fabulous DE shave with the razor and PAA software. Three passes followed up by a silent alum, witch hazel therapy and splash has left my face feeling fabulous. Yes, I am smelling good too. This scent will make it’s appearance periodically throughout the day.


Above is this morning’s picture taken while relaxing in the lanai of the Southern Villa. It is a beautiful day, with temperatures rising to the mid 80’s.

Well I hope you all enjoy your Sunday.

 

Very nice series of shaves Jeff. Why has the Manhattan razor drop on your list?

 

Excellent

Good morning guys!

I was doing my headshave this morning with my Rockwell 6C and decided while I have my setup already out that I will do a face shave with it too. I just didn't want to change my gear. It's rare for me to post an above-the-shoulder shave.



Rockwell 6C
Rockwell DE Blade (fresh)
MrEE Tuxedo Brush
Fine Accoutrements Italian Citrus SS
Proraso Green AS
Maggard's Alum Block
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 36 hrs
Dome Growth: 2.5 days

I went with the Fine Italian Citrus because I want to deep-six it. What better way to accomplish it by doing a dome and face shave simultaneously. It's a two for one deal. Lol! I have been using this soap for my headshaves because it is slick, but the scent was very faint when new.

Did 3 passes on my dome and 2 passes on my face that resulted in BBS. Did get 2 weeps on my mouth area because I didn't stretch. Yeah, I should know better. Lol! Styptic pen made them vanish without a trace.
Feedback was zero on the dome and face. Witch hazel was applied and it was followed by a liberal amount of the Proraso Green aftershave.

 

Absolutely fabulous Paul.

 

Great shave and a beautiful backyard Joe!

 

I think Paul is referencing the picture of the thermometer on the label of the soap.
