  5. And I thought you were committed. Or maybe it's you're trying not to be committed for crazy shaves. lol

  7. Chin up! You still have your youth, good looks, and your sense of humor. :D
  8. Not me either. :sad024: Not likely to get one this year. Still have a razor I haven't used and a Phoenix Double Open Comb on my wish list that's much more affordable. :happy088:
    Maybe one day. :angelic007:

    iKon OC DLC with Black Mamba Handle
    Feather #2
    Druida Robo Brush 28 X 52mm
    Sterling Soap Co. Margaritas In The Arctic
    Myrsol Metilsol Aftershave


    Menthol Monday shave was a face chiller with Sterling’s MITA. The iKon OC mowed the stubble down nicely and left me with a scary close 3 pass BBS shave today. The Druida Robo Brush has super soft tips, excellent flow through, and decent backbone. It had no trouble generating a mountain of frosty lather. The chill was on during the first pass, went up a notch on the second pass, and had my eyes watering by the third pass. A generous splash of Mysol Metilsol made me stand up straight. WOW! Love the burn!

  12. ...and

    The Broke! :shocked003:
  13. Me too. I don't get on the freeway in Atlanta unless I can get off by 6:30 am. Even then I check out the Waze app before getting on the ramp to make sure there isn't a SNAFU up ahead. And, I jump off before my ideal exit for the back roads if it gets too crazy - which it does more than half the time. On the way home, I don't take the freeway unless I can be off by 2:00 pm or get on after 7:30 pm - and traffic is clear. 90% of the time I take the back roads. If I don't leave by 6:30 am, I almost always get caught following a school bus. Makes me want to move away from this town. :angry017:
  14. Added a few elements to the shave today,
    Razor. MTO
    Soap. TSD barbershop
    Brush. WSP black badger
    Shave bowl from captains choice < that's new
    Osma alum < that's new too
    Aftershave. Captains choice bay rum
    Blade wilkinson sword

    After a good hot shower I loaded up the brush for about 20 seconds and started the lather in the new bowl.....holy cow, the lather just kept coming! You all would have been proud of it I'm sure.
    Started wtg which today I discovered on my neck where I've been having problems, was going the exact opposite way I thought. I guess I've been going atg this whole time. Did a second pass xtg and a touch up.....here's the result....[​IMG]









    Just kidding , I stole that from Google
    Near BBS! Very happy with the shave today. Thanks for all the advise folks!!
  15. Congrats. You had me worried with the pic.
  16. I can honestly say my face has never taken a beating like that in the picture. Poor guy.
  17. That picture had me worried. Thought that @NCoxSTL had gotten Igor to force shave you with a rusty tiger 3H.
  18. I have to figure out this Igor fella. He don't sound too nice lol
  19. Had great weekend. Waiting to board the flight home
  20. You should try straights and report back.
