Friday morning - close to being a Grand Freeze: Quick shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 6 Stirling Frozen Tundra SS Bundubeard Boomslang 3 ASB Floid Vigoroso AS Splash This Frozen Tundra is the second coldest soap after the Glacials and I LOVE it. The scent is awesome - it’s a blend of wintergreen, peppermint, and earthy notes, the lather and slickness are super, it gives a lulu of a menthol sensation, and it’s so skin friendly like all of Rod’s soaps. The Boomslang 3 balm is extremely moisturizing as well as soothing, its scent is very nice, and there’s plenty of menthol in it also. Finally the magnificent Floid Vigoroso aftershave with its old school European barbershop scent and its icy cold menthol kick completed the job. Another terrific three pass BBS shave that felt like from the Garden of Eden! Happy 4th of July to all my friends in the US of A! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No one was ever held accountable, but at least the water is better now.

SOTD: 5th July 2025. Shaving Recipe for today. Prep: Warm shower:/Cien Men Kenya Shower Gel. Pre: Cold wet flannel to my face & head. Cien PURE Fragrance Free Sensitive Bar Soap. Brush: Anbbas 24mm Tuxedo synthetic. Bowl Lather. Bowl: Tesco's Ceramic 'Cosmo' Side Bowl. Lather: The Body shop Maca Root & Aloe Shave Cream. Blade: Lord Silver Star Super Stainless. (D1) Razor: 1970's Gillette Tech.(ENG) Head w/ Lord L125 Handle. Razor: Gillette Guard. (Head/Dome) (D3) Post: Cold Water Face & Head Rinse./Cold water face & Head wash with brush squeezing's,/Alum Rub./Cold Water Rinse./Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.5 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With Care+Witch Hazel./ Aloe Vera Gel. /Brut Splash-On Lotion. Greetings, (Face & Head Shave) A new shave set up to start the weekend. The 70's Gillette tech paired up with the Shark super stainless. The appearance & weight of the short nimble aluminium handle gives the overall appearance of the razor an almost "toy-like impression" that the razor is a gimmick however, I've experimented using different stock handle's with it and find the Lord L125 aluminium longer handle improves it's feel & performance making it feel more balanced, paired together with the Shark super stainless, with the addition of using good technique it performed wonderfully. Another close comfortable efficient combined face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Brut Splash-On Lotion. My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine. Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.
