Thanks Tim. They had 2 choices, chrome or "somthing else". They were out of chrome and I have a chrome one, so I took the "somthing else". So I have a chrome one, and a "somthing else" one. The Yaqi site has the choices. I think the "somthing else" one looks cracking. Sorry I don't remember what it was called. Well... tp
Gorgeous set up, Jason! I'll be glad to see the News again, but will miss the GC--said it before, but that brush is amazing
Thank you Tim. I enjoy all the dupes so much, I would like to get TdH at some point. Thank you on the razor. I like the way the razor turned out. Now it fits with my no polish regime.
Awesome report, Charlie--classy set up and photo, too! Been a real pleasure fending off Helga with you and the others during all these shavette shenanigans!
Our accounting office is small anyway. So only the 3 of us have been coming in to work. My largest client has most of its folks working remotely, so I have been going into their offices twice a week. I think I will stick with the current routine until something forces a change.
Hey James, glad to hear from you! I don't use the R41 very often because it doesn't give me a very comfortable shave. When I use it, a new Feather blade is the weapon of chioce. I get a great shave, but it grinds the skin so much. I have other razors that match it in performance and aren't as rough as the R41 is. Glad to see your still around! tp
Just got a report from my sister: for her maiden voyage with a DE set up, she opted to use the Parker Variant (set at 3)--she loved it! New convert status... confirmed!
Price is $55 for the real juice here: https://www.fragrancenet.com/cologne/hermes/terre-dhermes/aftershave#157444 They have the shave cream in a tube as well.
March 22nd Razor: Dovo Inox Brush: Jtspartan PS: Proraso Green SS: MLS Colonia Di Agrumi AS: Proraso Green I ended up skipping my shave on Saturday which seems to be a pattern lately. That means I had a nice 2 days of stubble to take off with the Dovo. The lather was very nice. I'll miss this MLS soap when it's gone and I got this back when I only had 3 soaps so its about half gone. Probably last years now. The shave went well with no real issues. 3 passes to BBS on my face. Still can't get the angles quite right for BBS on my neck. Can't say I tried all that hard either. It wad time to get the family on schedule for home church.
Thanks Tim! Science people can hard "Scrabble" and cross swords with linguistic legerdemain with literary legends just like you and the other English devotees of fine Literature.
I sometimes use a straight or a shavette to shave my head to keep my skills sharp. Yes, it was an intended pun and you know you want to headshave via open blade. I don't use mirrors to shave the back, but I would suggest that you do if you decide to venture into uncharted territory.
Super shave Evan! I never got into MLS soaps, but I seen nothing but excellent reviews. It is a shame that it went out of business.
