  1. Neat choices Evan. Great diversity happening.

    Definitely combination for me too. I have to buff on my lower right jawline, and sometimes the lower right neck. A couple different variables, which DE with which blade (exposure & sharpness), and with open blades, the blade's sharpness and my attention level. With either, I usually make it happen (when chasing it) with a more XTG almost ATG pass. Extremely slick lather helps. True ATG passes more times than not, cause a ripping/pulling feeling with irritation regardless of tool.

    Nice report and result Joe! Enjoy your day!

  2. I think you are subconsciously being influenced by @BaylorGator and @wristwatchb.

  4. Good evening, gents!
    DSC_0724.JPG I shaved in the morning, but i've been so busy that i haven't had time to catch up, until now. Great shaves, all!
    I did a quick one pass shave with touch-ups, one weeper but i was rushing a bit, i was in a hurry. Not the most relaxing shave i've had, but the results were good enough.

    Have a nice day!

  9. Nice shave, Joe. Even as a dedicated "bloomer", I have never felt that Stirling soaps needed it.

  17. Great shave Patrick! I'm glad your dog is doing better.
    Thank you, Jason!
    Wonderful shave Terry! Jim @Jayaruh makes a great handle for those GEM JR Bar lather catchers.
    Awesome shave Jim!
    Beautiful shot, Perry!
    Fantastic shave Jim!
    Excellent shave Clint! Sorry to hear that your back is still bothering you.
    Excellent shave Joseph! Glad to see you sticking with it!
    Excellent shave Jeff!
    Very nice Danny! Put that OC top cap on a DE89 style base plate and you have the head that Yaqi calls "The Beast". Supposedly as aggressive as an R41.
    Awesome shave Gary!
    Another stunningly beautiful photo, Blair!
    Great shave Evan!
    Awesome shave Joe! I had a similar experience with Executive Man. It started out lightly scented but became much stronger after I got a little farther down into the tub.
    Beautiful setup, Mark!

  18. Thank you, Joseph! I agree that you don't have to bloom Stirling soaps, but I do on ocassion. It really depends on the type of lather I want.

  19. Oh, I'm committed now, Andrew. (Some might even say, I should be committed)

  20. For that extra "juicy" lather, a good bloom is always recommended. :eatdrink020:
