March 10th Razor: Blackland Sabre L2 Blade: Gem PTFE (1) Brush: Zenith boar Pre-shave: PAA Cube Soap: PAA Astra Planeta PAA Galactic Witch Hazel PAA Astra Planeta Star Jelly AS: PAA Astra Planeta Good morning! Returning to my Blackland focus brings the Sabre L2 into service for this morning's shave. Awesome three passes! Nearly silent alum. Shallow angle and a light touch delivers the goods with this razor. Have a great day! Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Thank you Joe. In general boar brushes are my least favorite brushes to use. I decided to give them another try over the last year or so and I am enjoying them more but they will never replace my beloved badger brushes.
Thank you Joseph. The appointment went much different than I expected. Tiffany is a MD so she insisted on a full exam and spent the entire time going over my symptoms and trying to isolate the cause of my headaches. If the headaches were tension or stress related, she had hoped to trigger a reaction this morning but was unable to do so. She did give me some exercises to help with the dizziness.
Thank you Joe. I just hope the doctors are able to come up with some answers and treatments that provide some relief soon.
March 10 SOTD Good morning guys! Straight razor shave # 248 6/8 Thiers Issard Spartacus Full Hollow Rd Pt MrEE Tuxedo Brush Cella SS Old Spice P/G AS Dickinson's WH Nivea ASB Whiskers: 36 hrs It's a nice sunny day on Long Island and it will be in the low 50's. Evan's brush did a great job lathering the Cella. I just love the scent of this soap and it is so easy to lather. Recently, I have been bringing out my different straights that I have not used in awhile and today was not an exception. The TI Spartacus was purchased on EBay and it came shave ready. I think I bought it in 2019, but I am not sure. Anyway, 2 passes (WTG and ATG) without touchups gave me an errorless and near BBS shave. Finished with the witch hazel, balm and Old Slice. One more thing, the Spartacus engraving was blanched out because of the lighting. Have an awesome day guys!
