    GREAT SHAVE AGAIN THIS MORNING. BBS IN THREE PASSES BLADE BUFFED MY LOWER CHIN ON THE FIRST PASS TO GET IT OUT OF THE WAY QUICKER AND IT WORKED OUT BEAUTIFULLY. FOR THOSE LOOKING TO PUNCH UP THEIR ARKO A BIT FOR A BETTER EXPERIENCE THROW SOME CREMO IN THERE, IT MAKES SOME CRAZY UBER LATHER. HAVE A GREAT SHAVE AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS MY FRIENDS. :santa

    This Brutalt Bra soap is so good - a beautiful scent of mild lavender, lots of rich lather and GOOD post-shave care. No dryness or irritation. Rod's pre-shave soap is terrific at softening a tough beard like mine and giving lots of moisturizing. The Booster Mosswood smells so barbershoppy and is a perfect finish to this awesome shave I had. :happy088: :happy088:

    To all, a great Christmas Eve - stay safe! :)

    Great photo. I bet the Super Pro in the KC gives on close shave.

    Thanks Mark. I'm working this morning trying to tie up a few things before the long weekend.

    THURSDAY
    Chilly, wet morning—perfect day for warm lather—so I brought out this mini scuttle from Robert Becker. Vintage CMON razor with some warm lather from Institut Karité (fantastic skin conditioning!); and finished the shave with a menthol Jasmine splash from TSD.
    Merry Christmas Eve, everyone!
