Cool shave Jason!

I have enough brushes. I like my Omega 49 and Stirling boar brushes.

It is one of my favorites, but it needs to be marinated.

very cool..the omega 10098 knot is my favorite followed by the 10005

gravy..

Thank you, Gentlemen.

This is the Sweet Daddy served up by a diner a few years back in my neck of the woods.

20 oz of beef, 6 slices of cheese and a full day of recovery.

Yeah, I know. They're a bit light on the fries. I guess that leaves room for desert.

awesome ..there is a burger shack here with one called Ernie's mile high..
fabulous..it and a bag of buns and you are set..the other was one called a Fat Albert .it was the size of a dinner plate with specially made bun..you got the next one free if you finished it..sadly the resteraunt is long closed..

I find a steel head on an aluminum handle a bit top heavy. The T handle i have is lighter than steel but still feels balanced.

Shaving recipe for today.

Prep: Warm shower / Original Source ~ Tingly Mint & Tea Tree Shower Gel.

Pre:
Cold wet flannel to my face.
Simple ~ Sensitive Bar Soap + Nuage Menthol shaving Oil.
Brush: Anbbas Boar.
Face Lather.
Frankensoap : Pears Transparent bar Soap + Wilkinson Sword Soap bowl.
Blade: Personna Gem PTFE. (2)
Razor: Ever Ready 1912. (US)

Post:
Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade peppermint lavender, eucalyptus, + Tea Tree essential Oils Witch Hazel Mixture./David Beckham ~ Instinct ASL./ Boots ~ Moisturising Lotion.


A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

My homemade Frankensoap concoction provided good slick protective lather for the shave leaving a good post shave feel.
A good acceptable shaving soap ok it's not in the same league as a traditionally made shaving soap but i didn't expect it to be.Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Boots ~ Moisturising Lotion.


My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy you Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

That about sums it up here on the East coast Jason.

Hello gents
Long time no see. A nice 6am shave here to wipe away 5 days growth before I scratched my face of from the itchy feeling.
Broke out the vintage Williams for this task. Lathered up with the brush given to me by @jtspartan (I have used this brush exclusively for every shave since I knotted it). Took the first pass with the MMOC followed by the Rockwell 6c for the second pass on #6 ( that's setting 9 upside down on this razor). A good water rinse then a splash of witch hazel and a good heaping of Aqua velva blue as a way of honoring my father as I was thinking of him this morning. Hope everyone is doing well and sorry for not being around much lately. Enjoy your day!!!

Bustelo is fabulous ground coffee, which I drank for decades, Blair! My current SWMBO is a coffee hound and only drinks freshly ground beans from her ridiculously expensive coffee grinder. These days it’s Ethiopian Yrgacheffe beans. She always switching to a new arabica bean every month or so. It’s good coffee, but I do miss my Bustelo! You’ve inspired me to go out a buy some.

Beautiful photo, Jason! I really like Lime soaps, particularly Castle Forbes Lime that reminds our fearless moderator of Lestoil (@Primotenore ) which I’ve never smelled. Mantic59, in fact, proclaimed Castle Forbes his favorite Lime shaving cream as well, in a Sharpologist summary, instead identifying Truefitt &Hill Lime Cream as the Lestoil Of Limes! Regardless, I’ve yet to find a shave cream to match Nancy Boy Signature in glide, richness of lather AND post-shave skin feel. I really like the lighting in your photos which you attribute to poor technique. I wish I could borrow some of that poor technique.

I’m a Boar fan as well, but do own a few badgers that I really like.
