    Hembree Not as pretty smelling

    Pearl Flexi adjustable safety razor (setting 4).
    Astra SP blade (2).
    Yaqi Bunny 19mm synthetic brush.
    Mitchell’s Wool Fat soap.
    Timeless Razor shave bowl.
    Royal Copenhagen cologne.

    I figured I better get an adjustable shave in before I get kicked out of the club. :D Very nice three pass shave with just a hint of alum. The Flexi does a very nice job. The Bunny is a small brush that for me is difficult to hold but it does a great job whipping up the Fat.

    I hope everyone has a wonderful Resurrection weekend!

    Real nice shave this morning with my first Hub City(yes, I plan to buy another before the year is out). "WTX" and C lubman Special Reserve makes for a great soap/A.S. combination. The Hub City soap simply bounces onto the brush. 2 passes-again first a(gainst)the grain, second WITH it. Going South to North makes it easier to go North to South later. No cuts&Polka Dots, 2 Knicks(both at Cactus Nation). Definitely a fine example of "Technique Trumps Tools", as the tools didn't cause the Knicks-my technique did that. The Clubman Special Reserve cane in its now "BREEN" color. What is BREEN. Brown and green. Same great scent, though. Most Outstanding.

    I feel the same as you, Danny, as I haven't used Stoylin for quite a while, and I am clearly described aa a "Stoylin fan". I'll be using more of it with future shaves.

    April 7 SOTA

    Good afternoon.

    1959 Gillette Fatboy (6)
    Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE Blade (?)
    MrEE Tuxedo Brush
    Arko SS
    Proraso Green AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Beard Growth: 24 hrs

    I decided to make it a Fatboy Friday shave.
    I am just loving the Arko this week. This soap just flat out works for me. It is an easy, slick and creamy lather that always gives me a great shave. I rarely cut myself when I use this soap. I did a 2.5 passer and a BBS result was for the taking. Didn't get any cuts or irritation. The alum was mostly silent. The Proraso Green aftershave was very cooling and soothing. Take care guys.
