Thursday July 28 - sort of patriotic

Razor: Supply 2.0 matte black with SE comb plate / Supply Black Label (15) -- American razor / Japanese blade
Brush: Simpsons Chubby 2 Synthetic -- as English as they come
Soap: MWF -- English and I believe northern English at that (my mother's family came from both sides of the Scottish Border)
Post: Osma alum then rinse -- French

Last shave was Sunday morning, so a four-day stubble to mow. One pass got it done.

The blade was still good on its 15th use, and I believe it should be good for a few more shaves still. So I have no complaints about this Supply Black Label blade.

I was a little too brisk in my shaving perhaps, because the alum felt a bit warm in places this morning. No real sting though.

Hope everyone has a good Thursday!

I am like on a 36 hr cycle per shave so I alternate between day and night shaves. If I shave at night, then there's no need for me to shave the following day. The exceptions are if I am going to church or a social event. Don't forget that I shave my dome as well and that's usually done when I am not shaving my face and neck. So in effect, I am shaving almost every day. I rarely do a complete above-the-shoulder shave because it would take me a good 30 to 40 minutes to do it and I really don't like to spend to much time in the bathroom.

Great setup, pic and shave Gary. Have a super day!

Outstanding shave Paul! Tic Tok, Tic Tok and I don't mean the social media platform. Lol!

Wow! 15 shaves on a blade and still has some life in it! Great shave John! Have a super day!

Thank you, and yeah I know what you mean (long lung breath).

thank you Joe.was going good this morning until i stuffed my pinky toe into a wall full swing.

up for tomorrow..

Ouch! That had to hurt. I hate stubbing my toe because the pain lasts for a minute or so and it feels like it never ends.

i may have awoken folks when i yelled..not broken but badly bruised.clutch foot to boot.no pun intended.

Very nice Gary. I haven't a clue as to what my setup will be tomorrow.

thank you Joe.they are all really quite similar..

Very nice shave Gary. What is the scent of the Floid aftershave?

Very nice travel set up Daniel. Hope all is well.

You too, Gary???????????????????????

A wonderful shave this morning following an exciting win last night for the Amazins over the Evil Empire.


I decided to finish out the week with the Lakewood Soap. The Dogwoods Handcraft brush turned a gram (small almond size) of soap into a nice creamy and luxurious lather. The three pass shave was absolutely a joy.

I hope you all had a nice day.

Thank you Joe.

Wonderful SE shave Joe. Stay cool!

Excellent shave Joe. You attended a great game. Take care.
