January 2021 30 Day Rule/30 Day Focus Pic and Discussion Thread- All are Welcome

Wonderful shave Jason. Very nice looking brush.

 

Excellent shave Bill.

 

Love it Evan!

 

Thank you Danny

 

SWMBO asked if I could paint the bathroom this weekend.
Me: What color?
SWMBO: can you paint it a color for the season? Each season.
Me: (I just gave her a strange look)
SWMBO: You said you wanted a hobby.
(Little does she realize that this rabbit hole we find ourselves in called wetshaving is a hobby)
SWMBO: When can I start making the Honey Do list for when your retire?

Jeff, @jgreenepa, I guess this must be in the fine print of the MOLC application?

 

Cool looking shave Evan.

 

Great solid shave Joe!

 

Thanks Gary.

 

Thanks Danny!
I might consider shaving with this razor for one week sometime this year. In fact, I may even suggest that we can do a one week focus on your most pedestrian razor. Of course, my VDH fits that description.

 

I have a Q-Shave razor that looks close the VDH. Just let me know.

Greetings,

An invigorating cold water shave to finish my shaving week off wonderfully.

The Tiger Platinum have performed really well throughout the week with no signs of dulling or tugging issues. I feel as though this blade could give another 1-2 shaves but i will retire it as 4 shaves from a blade is my normal limit. I can't see the point in pushing a blade to it's limit, blades are inexpensive why take the unnecessary risk of getting nicks & cuts just for the sake of a few extra shaves.
Third outing of the Eco Warrior shaving bar which performed wonderfully producing a slick protective lather in a short space of time...The soap has a wonderful scent, a good texture it's protective, slick and most importantly the lather doesn't dissipate or dry out on the face inbetween each pass, leaving an impressive post shave feel.
Over the Christmas period as a belated present to myself i placed a order for some Ach Brito Shaving Soap, another shaving soap bar which i will try out in future shaves.

A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near BBS shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70

Sounds like a reasonable goal I'd be happy with

 

Very cool! The thing that's also funny about that commercial is two guys shaving...out in the forest camping & fishing and they share the razor!

 

Barry, your posts are quite informative and helpful, thank you for the effort.

 

If you are going to use copyrighted images of me, I expect the base remuneration to be paid IN ADVANCE. Invoice sent-Patent Lawyer contacted.

 

I had a '56 (B) Flair tip. I really feel like Gillette hit their stride with this razor.

 

The design of the OC TTOs is gorgeous. One of my favorites.

 

That's EXACTLY what they are doing.

 

Terrific Thursday shaves Barry and Dave! Have a great day!
