30 Day Rule/Focus; Jan 2023. All are Welcome!

Thank you Gary....where DID that redness come from (Cactus)? I didn't go over a speedbump..thing just SHOWED UP(as I said).

 

I'lll tell you what I want.....ANOTHER CASE OF RISE SUPERFOAM(9 in all).

 

Fitzgerald process lol

 

I wonder if Cad would approve.

 

Thank you Paul

 

Well, you join me(and others I won't mention-@brit)in doing good-naturned humor in here

 

Ok but not my cup of tea

 

Oh, I realize there are those who disapprove of it.

 

I guess you were not an Underdog fan in your youth. I am sure you recall one of my earliest avatars.

Cad is Simon Bar Sinister’s assistant.

 

Not disapprove, just not for me.

 

Most excellent Proraso shave Gary.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Thanks Gary.

 

I did watch it when I was 10, but didn't remember Simon Bar Sinister's assistant's name. By the way, there is a Jewish cultural component to the mad scientist's name. The Bar stands for Son of, therefore the anglicized name is Simon Son of Sinister. It's a reference to Simon Bar Jonah, or Simon Son of Jonah who was the Apostle Peter.

 

Nice shave Joe.

Good evening.

Assured for Men Dollar Tree Razor
Assured for Men DE Blade (4,5)
Barbury Synthetic Brush
Arko SS
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS
Stirling Alum Block
Beard Growth: 1 day
Dome Growth: 2+ days



I want to dedicate this shave to Barry @palmolive fox because he uses fiscally sound budget items for his shaves. So, I decided to use one of my least expensive setups for a face and a headshave. I picked Arko because it is quite slick to glide the razor with a blade that shall I say will be binned after this session.
Everything went well. I got BBS all the way around without blood showing on my face and neck, but I did draw a weep on the back of my cranium because I saw some red on the lather on the razor. I finished with a cold water rinse and then applied the alum block with very little feedback. It mostly was on my nape. I checked for the weep on my head and didn't see it so it must have been a tiny one. Splashed on the AQ to finish this fine above-the-shoulder shave. Take care.

 

I've come to the decision that I'll purchase another soap from HUB CITY SOAPS, when the time calls for it. I've had more than one from Stoylin amd Central Texas Soaps before the lattee ended its business. Oh, Razorock, too.

 

thank you Joe.

 

fine shaves and pic Joe.

 

Thanks Gary. It's amazing what a $1.39 razor can do.
