    Very nice shave Scott. How do you like the mandarin splash? I will be taking my son to his Jiu Jitsu class this evening.

    January 25 SOTM.

    Good morning.

    1968 Gillette Slim Adjustable (7)
    Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE Blade (4,5)
    Semogue OC Super Badger Brush
    Cella SS
    Fine Accoutrements Platinum AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Modessa Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 24 hrs
    Dome Turf: 3.5 days

    I was a little late in my scheduled dome shave so it was necessary to do it this morning with my face shave.
    The Gillette Slim Adjustable took down my dome turf without a problem. Face shaving with it was a cake walk. Three passes on the dome and face gave me an ultra smooth and comfortable shave without any leakage.

    Cella always provides a slick lather so I chose for this shave. It's amazing that I don't nick myself with this soap. It just flat out provides the protection that is needed for a wonderful shave. Ok, maybe I did nick myself using this soap, but I honestly don't remember because it may have been a few years back.

    The alum gave my some feedback, but nothing to write home about because it would be a boring letter. Lol! Finished in my usual way. I am almost done with this aftershave. I problem have one more application and then it's fini. Take care.

    Fantastic barbershop shave again this morning. I am making progress denting this soap. The Jayaruh boar whipped up a nice lather. Usually I will spend about 2-3 minutes whipping the lather with a few water droplets being added for good measure.

    Three passes to super smoothness without any irritation or incidents.

    Have a great day gentlemen.
