Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
Jayaruh #395 Badger
Gillette No Notch Aristocrat 46-47
Astra SP
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Granddad's Blend AS

The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #395 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette No Notch Aristocrat and Astra SP Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Granddad's Blend AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Two nice shaves with my Throwback Thursday choice(and same for today). Clean, clar, and fresh along the cheeks&sideburns. Same for both ends of Porcupine Alley. Cactus Nation waa fine, but could be better. No cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots-very good sign there. The Sebastian Aftershave was nicely done both days. Finished today with the AB Millionaire cologne(but not Thursday). Both days shaves get a Very Outstanding report.My thyroid has been giving me problems of late, weakens me to the point that it's hard to get serious and do my shave reports. . Gunna have an ultrasound Tuesday. Wish me luck.

Thanks, Doug. This sheet metal design from symmetrical pottery is my favorite of the three bowls I have from symmetrical pottery.

I hope you get good news, Paul.
