Happy Birthday.

My secret is that my last hobby was collecting and/or assemblig guns. They averaged $800 each. A trip to the range was $50 in ammo, minimum. My wife is now thrilled that shaving soaps are only about $15 each. I have no idea why she puts up with me.

SOTD 9.29.2017

Pre-shave: 5 cups of black coffee + a hot shower
No brush today... used Nivea Men's Sensitive Shaving Gel, applied by hand
Razor: Ever-Ready 1912 SE
Blade: Gem Blue Star (2)
Post-shave: Dickinson's WH, Nivea Sensitive Post-Shave Balm, Shulton Old Spice cologne

Had a lot going on today so originally I wasn't going to shave but then opted for a quick one so I picked up the shave gel by Nivea. I do enjoy that gel. It goes on easily and it's creamy and protective. This is a great razor! Ended up with a close comfortable shave with one nick on my jawline (no idea what I did... didn't notice it right away). Wrapped this shave up with some very old Old Spice which I've had for decades. Awesome.

Have a great weekend everyone!

I'm with Doug.... Happy Birthday!!

I'm in the same boat. I have no idea why my wife puts up with me either.

Jamie's Night Shave...
1. PRE = PAA CAD lather booster. SOAP = Lather Brothers - El barbero - 1st shave with this artisan - very nice tallow soap, also there take on barbershop scent is different, more like Drakkar cologne for my nose - I Like it.
2. Semogue 830 - as always this brush is a lather beast.
3. PERSONNA FLOATING HEAD Injector - this already one of my best injectors - today I used a Twin Blade (JAP Schick II - New) for the 1st time and WOW!! With a twin this may be better than a Schick Type O.
4. Thayers Extra Cool Witch hazel / MASTER Topaz After Shave
5. Lather Bros El barber A.S. Balm - very nice balm! it was Thick and also had some menthol cooling going on.

Tonight's shave was with another razor I rarely use, because it just looks too pretty to possibly mess up. I had a buttery smooth 2 pass shave, with very minor touch-ups, that left me BBS. Excellent razor.

Razor- J.A.Henckels, 70 1/2. Zwillingswerks.
Brush- Stirling Boar. Super soft, with just the right amount of backbone for face lathering.
Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented
Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. Riverboat Bottle.

Happy Birthday

Smells like the Drug Store SEptember!!!! (Stirling Booster)

September 29
Razor - Schick E2 Injector
Blade - (5)
Soap - Stirling Sandalwood
Brush - Jayaruh #46
ASOD - The Veg

Next to the last shave for SEptember so the Schick E2 gets one more shave. Stirling Sandalwood for the soap, the JR46 for the fantastic lather and two passes and a little bit of touch ups gets near-BBS. And, it's the smoothest the E2 had given me this month. This little razor could get addictive if I spent enough time with it. I've enjoyed both of the Schick Injectors this month as they took me back to when I first started shaving. I can see why they have continued to be popular. By the way - I was watching one of the James Bond movies today, I believe it was The Man With the Golden Gun with Roger Moore - and he was shaving with a Schick M. Kind of cool to spot that.

Tomorrow finishes it up with the Gem 1912 for one more shave before hitting OCtober. I'm getting my OC's out and ready to go. Have a great weekend!
