30 Day Rule/Focus; December 2024. All Are Welcome.

Excellent first day of winter shave Barry. Winter is my least favorite season, but 3 out of 4 isn't too shabby. Lol!

 

Thanks Chris. Fortunately, it was a surface nick and it didn’t form a scab. As far as headshaving, it's not for everyone. One must take into account their headshape before they embark on this style. I have seen guys that can't rock it because they have a flat top or occipital bone, or pointed top etc. Of course, I would never comment in a negative way. I don't like being punched in the face. Lol! If you ever go sly, then be prepared to be shocked. It will take awhile for you and your inner circle to get used to it.

 

Terrific shaves and setups Chris. I am not into boots, but I guess you're wife's are designer ones.

 

thank you Chris.

 

absolutely fabulous start to the weekend..

First shave with the Festivus soap. Very nice lather as usual with my experience with the other Ginger’s Garden soaps in the Morthern den. The scent definitely gives you a vibe of the Christmas season with a hint of cranberry and spices.


DE Shave # 575 - DEcember Shave - Merkur 37c

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: Merkur 37c Slant
Blade: Shark Platinum
Brush: Sawdust Creation Studio Working Man Blues
Lather: Ginger’s Garden Snow Bliss
Aftershave: Proraso Rinfrescante
Additional Care:
Omega Alum
Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

Given the mornings weather, which I am sure Joe, @Trigger, is doing the tarantella, I felt the Ginger’s Garden Snow Bliss was appropriate. Of course, we really do not get much snow here on LI anymore, so a dusting to a half inch could be all we get until January or February.

Another great three pass shave. The lather, as previously mentioned above, continues to impress. I whipped about a gram and a half in the Timeless bowl. The lather just exploded as viewed in the accompanying picture. Great way to start the weekend.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Very nice citrus shave Gary.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Thank you Chris. You do so as well.

 

Excellent shave Chris.

 

Very nice shave inspite of the blade being a bit harsh Chris.

 

Excellent ABM shave Barry.

 

Which means you can shave again later. Socially acceptable works. Nice looking shave Joe.
