    I am the same way. I can usually tell with the first shave if I am going to truly love the razor.

    Real fine shave this morning. Stoylin Sandpiper was the star fragrance(soap&A.S.). At the last second, I added Stoylin Frost Drops into the soap. This time they came out in drop form. Good. You don't want it to POUR out(like an aftershave would). 0:30 to load the soap onto the Jayaruh#59 brush. Nice swirling motion. No cuts or weepers. After the second pass, I noticed some astroturf was still under my right ear. Got it. Nice job on the Cactus Formation at the neck. I might have gone a little overboard with the aftershave, but it will settle down. I'll have to buy another Sandpiper aftershave, as this one will finish long before the soap does. Who knows-maybe I'll need a 3rd bottle. But that's too far ahead. Very pleased-Top Of The World Excellent.

    Happy Friday everyone. I am technically off work today but I will still work remotely. I have worked to hard to get caught up to fall behind again. My new Semogue Torga C5 boar was delivered yesterday. So given my lack of patience, I washed the brush and put it into rotation right away. The brush handle is very ergonomic and compact with a knot measuring 24 x50 mm. This is my second Semogue boar brush and color me impressed. They arrive without smelling like a barnyard and work pretty well right out of the box. It will be interesting to see how the brushes perform once they are fully broken in. Three passes and touch ups caught the baby. Not thinking and moving to fast, I managed to nick myself just below the nose. Nothing the styptic pencil couldn't handle. I hope everyone has a Fantastic Friday.

    Just One July Shave #3

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Razor Retro Shavette
    Blade: Schick Proline P-30
    Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts 26 mm Tuxedo
    Lather: Razorock Stallion
    Aftershave: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
    Additional Care:
    Barbero Alum Block
    Stirling Tea Tree Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    I have elected to modify my theme for the month to JustOneJuly. So 31 days of Oudness!
    The RR base of the Stallion provided a wonderful lather for a basic price point soap. You really can not go wrong with the quality of their soaps for the price.
    Another three pass shave with the shavette. This is my first set of shaves, including yesterday, with the P-30. It is sharp but comfortable to use. You just have to remember to use a light touch and not worry about chasing the baby. The shaves with this blade have been close to the baby. A couple of weepers yesterday which I will attempt to a new blade but moreover user error.

    I just love this woodsy scent of both the soap and splash combination. I will be looking to obtain other Oud scented soaps and slashes prior to the end of COVID 2020. Any suggestions by the threat members of this group are welcomed.

    Happy Kickoff to the Holiday Weekend. :eatdrink047:

    From tomorrow's shave on, the area of my neck, which used to have two names-Y Formation and Cactus Formation(both named for the new way I've been shaving the neck, which has turned out to be a great success-)will have a new name: Cactus Nation.
