Sept 2 SOTE

Good evening.

Schick I 1 Injector
Pella Injector Blade (8)
Hembree/Maggard Timberwolf Brush
TSD Barbershoppe SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Personal Care Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 29.5 hrs



I decided to shave this evening instead of doing it tomorrow because I will be meeting Joe C tomorrow for breakfast and I hate to be in a rush. Picked the smooth Schick I 1 because it really delivers a smooth shave everytime. Three error-free passes gave me a very smooth and comfortable shave.
I went with the TSD Barbershoppe SS because it is mildly scented and I figure why waste a stronger scented setup when I will be in bed shortly. Here's my lather:



There wasn't any alum feedback. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to end this session. Take care.

 

From memory she hasn't been around for a while...?

Thanks Gary

 

any and all chance i get, busy few weeks.....

Ok now added, just for you @JACarbone

SE razor, Sterling sample soap, Satsuma, Semogue brush, Schick Blade, Sandalwood

1 Days growth

Usual Prep and Preshave = Faulding’s shave cream
Cream/Soap = Sterling Satsuma
Brush = Semogue Owners club
Bowl = Timeless
Razor = SCHICK E TYPE CANADIAN
Blade = SCHICK PROLINE B-20 (6) roughish, past its used by date

Have a great Tuesday one and all

Edited: belated pikkie just for Joe @JACarbone !

 

Last month, I did mention that she was back, but we couldn't get our usual spot for her to serve us. Joe and I did talk to her briefly. Originally, she said that she was coming back this past July, but I found out that she came back in February. Joe and I went to another diner in the area until July. That's when I checked into her restaurant to see if she was back and then got in contact with Joe to let him know that she was indeed back. Unfortunately, we would have been back at her restaurant sooner if we would have known that she cut her trip short.

 

Thanks Chris.

 

Excellent shave Chris. The Schick E Injector Razors are aggressive.
