(Slant, Simpsons)

4 PM 32 hours, all Set for tomorrow

Prep = usual Cold Water Shave with Proraso Preshave Blue
Croap = TOBS Eton College, lovely mild scent
Brush = Simpsons Chubby 2 gets a Second Chance, much better this time***
Bowl = Timeless bowl
Razor = Slant Merkur 37C
Blade = Gillette Platinum (3) still ok, but only just
Passes = 2 with touch ups, another pass with touch ups
Post = CWR, Alum minimal, CWR, Thayers, Pinaud ASL
Damage = none

Score = 9/10

*** Comments = Loaded the Simpson heavily. Two scoops of the TOBS into the Timeless bowl, titrating in the water, super duper, still nice and SLICK right till the end. Gotta fill this chunky brush so it gets no chance to do any hogging. Still shedding some hair but I have only used it around 10 – 15 times, still more of a painter than a spreader

Lovely Limoncello scent from the Eton College and Pinaud

Have a lovely Thursday folks, looking forward to seeing more September Shaves

Super SE Shave Barry. Have a great day.

Great shave Chris. Take care.

A nice Throwback Thursday shave. That Stoylin Glacial really hit the spot on a day where we can fry eggs on the parking lot. Clean and clear in most areas, save for the two Porcupines(North and South), which came up with 3 Knicks in all. I had confidence that the cold-water rinse and cool A.S. would kill'em, as they did. Cactus Nation came out fine. 2 passes. Joseph(I forget his screen name)once wrote in heere that it doesn't matter what happens DURING the shave, it matters how you look AFTER it. Therefore, I'll go down a couple grades to Most Outstanding. Just can't give this one the top grade, regardless of Joseph's comment.

Chris, here's somethig we need to get to the bottom of..the right pronounciation for Pinaud. Some call it "paNAOUD," some csll it paNOED". I call it "PeaKnow".(thus without the D). I wonder what the correct one is. We could ask Eduardo(Pinaud),but he's unavailable I do believe.

fantastic shave events gents.
