    Razor: Drew Dick 7/8” Quarter Hollow Purple Heartwood
    Brush: JTSpartan Boar 24 mm
    Lather: Lakewood Soap Company Prairie Song
    Aftershave: Derby City Chop Shop Small Batch Tonic- Winter Reserve
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum

    Wonderful LWSC shave this morning. The Drew Dick razor easily took care of this mornings growth. The alum report was nonexistent and the post shave routine has left my face smooth and refreshed.

    I hope you all have an enjoyable Saturday.

    Finished off th Clubman/American Barber duo in fine fashion. Mighta done a little better on the left cheek, but I'll kill that off tomorrow. Right cheek and both sideburns look great. FEEL great. North and South Porcupine Alley great. Jawline great. Cactus Nation great. 2 passes. Zero Cuts, Knicks, and Polka-dots. Thus ends Barbershop Week. . Super Duper Excellent.

    Good afternoon.

    Van der Hagen TTO Razor
    Shaverboy DE Blade (3rd use)
    JR #386 Silvertip Badger Brush
    Music City Suds Lavender and Ever Amen SS
    Music City Suds Lavender and Ever Amen AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Beard Growth: 22 hrs

    Last night, I headshaved with this razor and
    blade (2nd use) so I decided to use it again for today's shave. I haven't used my ultimate favorite brush in awhile so I went for it. I drenched the brush and used it to wet my face and proceeded to load the brush without removing the excess water. Man, I got a very creamy, slick lather that started out thin, but as I added more soap, it became perfect for me. I must say the container and the brush got messy. Lol! Did 3 passes instead of my usual 2 because I had more than enough lather. Since I am using a mild razor and blade, why not? I would say that I got a close, cotton ball BBS shave without any damage to my skin. The alum gave some feedback on my neck, but it wasn't earth shattering. Splashed on the matching aftershave to finish this A+ session. Take care.
