30 Day Rule/Focus; February 2024. All Are Welcome!

Wonderful shave this morning, returning to Fine February through Monday. Success at the "loading dock" as the soap is winding down in amount. No cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots, though I thought I might get a Knick, as the razor hit a speed bump. Clean and clear everywhere except the right side of N. Porcupine Alley. I need to do a serious focus on that area in the future. 2 passes. Excellent work from Fine's Latigo A.S. Will definitely replace Latigo when gone. Super Duper Outstanding.

 

Wow! Gorgeous

Very nice travel shave stick shave this morning. We are off to Shawnee Mountain in Pennsylvania to take Anthony and his cousin for snowboarding lessons. Yes, the mountain has snow while the surrounding areas are snow free. Comfortable temperatures for the boys today.

A quick three pass shave that my wife was surprised that I had shave so quickly. Well I did not have to whip up a bowl lather, which I enjoy doing, no pre shave soap, alum, witch hazel or balm. Therefore, basically no post shave routine save the aftershave.

Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Love the 37c. It is my first purchased DE razor back I. The mid 90s. Great shave Barry.

 

Very nice shave Chris. How large is the scoop you use for the soap?

 

Rut? Just consistency that leads to effortlessly fabulous shaves. Well done John.

Good man! Aftershave choice?. It'll have to be Clubman if possible or old spice shulton or proctor and gamble and last but not least aqua velva all three will fit the bill for me perfectly.
