I got a very nice shave this morning, I'm gonna call it BBS, can't find a rough patch anywhere. My Boar brush is really starting to break in, too. Happy Friday all!

 

Went back to the Plisson? I don't blame you, it's probably one of the best brushes on the market.

 

How do you get the thumbs up emoji?

 

JR, the Omega 10066 is a great brush! I'm glad to see you sticking with it. Enjoy.

Troy,
I'll be getting the Blackbird towards the end of February, income tax refund I'm going raw long handle. Can't wait.

Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Super Speed 1959 E1
Blade: Personna Lab Blue
Lather: Route 66 Retro Spice
Brush: Maggard 24mm Synthetic Marble Handle
Post: Thayers Cucumber WH. Gold Bond Ultimate
Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shady Past. Route 66 Retro Spice aftershave lotion.
Fantastic shave. The more I use this Flare Tip the more I'm sold on the milder razors, which only means that I've finally figured out how to use my tools. TTT. I love Route 66 Retro Spice! Such an awesome scent, so slick that my blade glides across my face. Fabulous skincare. The Maggard synthetic has that custom look and feel. Shady Past was a nice change this morning. Route 66 Retro Spice aftershave lotion is going to be a huge hit!!

Using Tapatalk on the iPhone, it's one of the standard iPhone emoji.

 

I am thinking exactly the same thing. What kind of bike do you ride?

 

Oh! I didn't know that Tapatalk would allow access to the iPhone emojis. Very cool. Thanks, brother.

 

I just discovered it this week. Most of my posts are on the pc but I do use Tapatalk often.

 

I use iPhone/Safari

 

2013 Harley Road Glide. You?

 

It will be money well spent!

 

I did a lot of research before buying, it got great reviews. I do want a plisson synthetic or shave revolution whenever they are available again. But I do really like this omega!

 

I'm really excited about it. You were the deciding factor with your review. Thank you!!

 

It's the best brush under $10, as far as synthetic brushes go you won't go wrong with either the RazoRock Plissoft or the new Maggard synthetic. Both are fantastic.

 

2013 Yamaha Super Tenere. Big ugly beast of a bike.

 

Glad to be an enabler help!

 

I too have been following Troy's and Mark's reviews on the Blackbird. I had planned to order another Wolfman which was my exception to joining the NB 2016. I might consider getting the Blackbird instead.

 

Sweet! I don't have any good pics with me...
