I was going to do a "serious" Menthol Monday" shave this morning, but then I saw that the weather isn't quite right for it. I know, I know, it will be SOON. Anyway, this was the lineuep:

prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(in shower)*
lather-Hub City Soaps-"Pages"
brush-Stoylin "li'l brudder" synthetic
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE
A.S.-Hub City Soaps-"Pages".
*-My face has really cone to like the Nivea bodywash(course the same goes for Cactus Nation). Nivea might be my summer shave prep.
I made a good choice-with "Pages" I don't feel like I just lit my face on fire, but I didn't freeze it, either. I was wondering how I'd do on the loading persuasion, as the soap amount is beginning to wind down, but I ended up being quite surprised at the amount that found its way onto the brush. Great shave all around. No problems. I'm not as pleased with the Pages scent as I wanted to be, but it sure knocks out the whiskers in fine fashion. I'll get another West Texas when the Pages runs out. 2 healthy passses. Fine close from the A.S. I'd like to see the Lubbock(TX)family who owns Hub City to increase their product persuasion in the future. As Outstanding As It Gets.

 

I've always found it interesting that many aftershaves say "cooling" on the bottle, but some of them are much "cooler" than others. For instance, you have Aqua Velva and Clubman in this category, but AV is quite "cooler" than Clubman.

 

fine shave Paul.

some don't cool at all,even though that say they do..

 

Thanks Gary.

 

Awesome shave Gary. Are you saying it's better than the Indian version of Old Spice? I am intrigued.

 

Thank you both!

 

A fine shave! I like the tie-in with the razor to your birth year.

 

A very fine shave!

You all have much nicer pictures than I do.
(-:

 

thank you Joe.i wouldn't know about the indian old spice,but its better than the current drug store version..

 

thank you.cell phone/computer/photo express..

 

Nice pic, Gary! And a nice pick for June too -- I doubt anyone ever went wrong choosing a Gillette Tech as their daily driver.

 

Thanks John. Sounds great! Btw, did you shave your beard?

 

Yes. But then I last shaved on May 21 - so I was shaving a 12-day growth again today. A "short beard"...

 

Terrific Tech shave Gary. You have a great plan.
