Oneblade Synthetic Shaving Brush
Salsa Bowl / Timeless Shaving Bowl Scuttle
Razorock Black Label Soap
FuzzTech on Weber Bulldog Handle
Feather Blade
Black Tie Gentleman EDT – Dupe of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille

I gave the FuzzTech another run this morning. Awesome shave all the way around. The Razorock soap is just an impressive soap at its price point. It can run with some of the more expensive soaps with no problem and at $2.50 a puck on sale is a bargain. The FuzzTech with a Feather is a joy to use and gives a nice three pass shave.

Finished it off with the Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille dup.

Y’all have a great a Humpday.

 

That it is. In fact, I can almost equate this to the number of times I walk around our large driveway now....I used to smoke it in 3....now 2 seems enough. Age-that's what I'm talkinabout.

 

Well, that's better than smoking cigs! Lol!

 

i lived in a community farther up north where it snowed for 4 months of the year,drivers knew the routine and it was just another day.here its so infrequent many can't drive in it and chaos erupts..just not worth the stress and hassle for a few bucks.or a bent car or worse..not the daredevil i used to be..

 

Every once in a while we have guests in the house and The Lovely Mrs Headroom brings up The ShaveMobile.

Naturally I need to bring it out for Show and Tell.

Then.........

after they get off the floor.......
they realize she was serious

 

I have concerns about that. I'm hoping it'll look similar with only different soaps or aftershaves. I'm also hoping it'll look... less dingy--after 17 years in this 50 year old house, we are finally getting around to remodeling the bathroom.

 

Nice choices, Danny.

 

awesome shave and pic Danny..

 

Do you do shave videos for your guests, Mr. Cawtuh? Actually, they wouldn't be videos-they'd be real, of course.

 

It's another Alabama Awesome and Fantastic FuzzTech shave all rolled into one, Danny! I am with you on the RazorRock soaps. They perform well at their price point. I bought my two pucks for $4.50 each. I like the Classic (Marzipan scent), but the Triple X was meh.

 

Speaking of home remodeling, I really do enjoy looking at the "current" design of the house I was raised in as a baby. Some parts look quite similar to back then, but they remodeled the kitchen and I think some of the upstairs bedrooms.

 

I believe you were his inspiration to do so.
I could be wrong, but August or early September seems to strike memory.
And...... he seldom misses a day of shaving.

Now who was it that had the 800?

Fess up!

 

Ah yes....1967 Boston Red Sox.

 

Nice shave, Gary. And way to mix it up with the latherless soap. I keep one in my sock drawer for those days that I have to shave, but don't have time to do it right. I often forget I even have it, but it's a nice, quick option (probably should have used it yesterday; going on three days without a shave )

 

Another Alabama Awesome shave, Danny!

 

Nice looking shave, Adam. Sorry to hear about the cut, but it's awesome that you are getting such great results with your honing. Honing is the one thing that is keeping me from straights. Maybe when the kids grow up and I retire (approximately 20 billion years from now )

 

SOTD 01/08/20

What a splendidly designed razor. Despite the cold and snow, I enjoyed a relaxing and surprisingly close two pass shave! MWF whipped up with Jayaruh Custom #372 into a glistening, slick protective lather that initially left me wondering whether I had a blade in the razor! Talk about smooth! The razor is aptly named, and delivered a shave easily the equal of my Vector, AS-D2 or Silversmith, all great razor’s, but ranging from 4 to 4 1/2 times the price of this little Marvel. BBS shave #2 was bloodless and left me feeling clean, refreshed and oh so very smooooth on both noggin and face.

RAZOR: Fine Marvel Safety Razor
BLADE: Suneko
PREP: Cold water rinse
BRUSH: Jayaruh Custom Boar #372
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Thayers Lavender WH and finished with Fine Lavender Pour Homme

 

Terrific shave, Jeff!

 

Nice shave, Danny! And dat Fuzztech...

 

When in doubt.....
Shake it out
