Actually, it would be much better if one were to put a Clubman air freshener in there! Surround yourself in that classic barbershop stink!!
Heyyyy! Clubman air freshener!! I really might be onto something here. Might be worth sending an email to Pinaud.

Fantastic shave and photo Jim.

Solution, Keith: heavier loading---after blooming, of course.

Oh my! Just beautiful, Jim!

I have the same soap (was actually planning on using it this morning). The more I use it, the better I like the scent. Would I order it again? Probably not. There is no disputing the performance of it, though!

Thanks, Clint.

Thank you, Bruce!
I have two more Grooming Dept soaps coming up, a duck fat for tomorrow and a tallow for Thursday. I enjoy the scents more on these two. Hopefully the performance is up there with Before the Fire.

Another quick update from the road:

Shaved this morning with the Otto Roth New LC and Indian Wilkie(2); this was one of the heads on that two-headed razor, albeit with a more conventional handle. All told, a great shave... near-enough BBS, no noise from the Alum, probably nicer than Sunday night's shave in some ways. My only complaints? Maybe a bigger brush and definitely a handle with better defined knurling (the one I used today was a slightly unusual ball-end handle from a lot I bought a while back).

Day two of training today. Yesterday was a massive info dump; today should get to more relevant parts.

Colonial General UFO Colibri
Schick Proline
El Druida Manchurian
Asylum Saponificio Varesino Colonia
Fine Italian Citrus
ADP Colonia Essenza

A terrific Tuesday morning shave with the General loaded with a Schick Proline. ASW Colonia, easy, thick, shiny slick lather with a spot on fragrance. Kudos to Phil! After three passes, topped with matching scents of Italian Citrus and Colonia Essenza I am deliciously smooth, sweet smelling, and exhilarated. Have a great shave friends!

Up and moving very early this morning. Already at the office working on closing out the books of a solar power company. At least i was able to get a good shave in earlier. I really enjoy this brush. The handle is ergonomic and the knot has excellent scrub, backbone, soft tips and flow through. In other words a face lathering dream. Three passes and touch ups ended with the baby in the house. One weeper from my chin die to operator error. A splash of Fine Santal ended a near perfect shave. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

The prototype is complete, and trials are underway. Unfortunately, it looks like the Clubman off-gassing accidentally cracks windshields. Ed P's engineers are investigating...

I have three words to say in response to all this. 1. L 2. O 3. L. .

I washed my hair with Clubman Country Club Shampoo this morning, Charlie. Here, have some.

Charlie was doing fine until he got to Doc Pinaud.

World class photo and setup Jim!

Wow, deliciously smooth! Wonderful picture, Mark!

Great shave and picture, Clint!

Nice shave Patrick!

You can always report my posts to the Mods, Paul, if you find them to be offensive. Currently, 1456 of my posts are under review, so it might be awhile before you receive a response.

Have you considered a hood scoop for your '63? I don't think it would significantly increase the Thug's carbon footprint.

Thanks, Mark!
