cool sample sunday shave and pic Joe.

 

Oh really. The boars perform really well for me, esp with the harder soaps.

Coolset and shave

Nice result there Joe, it's satisfying to deep-six something, but then on to the next thing. I am liking my Pinaud Clubman less and less, I either to use it up fast or put it at the back of shelf for another day.

Thanks Joe. I have dry eyes, esp with the a/c here in summer so the tears are welcome Lol!

 

Monday 25 Nov 2025

Same setup again
The vintage blade is definitely dulling meaning more strokes per area per pass so I decided enough is enough and put it in the blade bin
Chilly face for the next hour or so
Another successful shave
Interesting that as I approach the end of the Guerlain Pour Homme it seems to be getting a more smoky scent or maybe I haven’t noticed it before

Have a great Monday one and all

 

thank you Chris.

 

Thanks Chris. Pinaud-Clubman Classic is an acquired taste. The Pinaud-Clubman Lilac Vegetal smells like cat pics to some and to others like myself, it smells wonderful.

 

fine start to the week Chris.

 

Cold and refreshing shave Chris.

 

Great shave Joe.

Excellent shave Gary.

 

thank you Joe.

 

I began the week just as I closed last....continued with the Barbershop products. The brush was the Maggard 24 mm. Marble Handle Synthetic. Clean and clear in most areas, but 2 cuts on S.Porccupine(chin). I'll do better there tomorrow(althoiugh I'll have a different setup). The cold water rinse and A.S. helped with it SOME. but I want better than "SOME". 2 passes. Nice work with the aforemtioned A.S.(Clubman). I'll call this a Fairly Outstanding performance.

Another spot on DG Darkfall shave. Three glorious passes to a smooth error free shave. The blade will be binned as this was the tenth shave. Despite the number of shaves, it still delivered.

Hope you all have had a great first half of this glorious Monday.

 

Very nice shave Barry.
