    Well, I decided to break my streak of 128 consecutive days of shaving. It was a good run. It will be nice to shave a more than 36 hour stubble once again.

    Razor: C-Mon Special 6/8”
    Brush: Shore Shave Cool Mint Water 24 mm Synthetic
    Lather: Old Cahaba Shave Club Brocha
    Aftershave: Los Jabones de Joserra Brocha
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Excellent Fougere shave this morning as I prepare to ride up to snowy Buffalo later this afternoon to see the New York Rangers tomorrow afternoon. I did my usual routine after getting Anthony off to school. (X3Bar Push workout, warm shower and iced water shave)

    Three passes with the C-Mon razor has left my face smooth and refreshed. The post shave alum report was nonexistent. The Brocha aftershave is a nice scent but the longevity is short lived. I will probably give myself a splash of Brut before I head out the door this afternoon. Need to smell good on the ride up.

    Hope you all have a great day.

    Excellence all around Danny. I thought about the Fst for today but opted for a Fougere scented software.

    Thanks Joe it was a fine day all right. Growing more stubble today, ready for tomorrow's shave.
    !

    I am beginning to appreciate that. So many sweet spots and variables to get the hang of, it's the personal challenge of a new skill set, I guess. Beginning to see the sense of the 30 day rule for the more disciplined folk, but I am enjoying my own little focus anyway. Looking forward to the weekend and the MWF again tomorrow.

    Good Morning.

    Shavette Shave #442
    Dovo
    Personna Hairshaper Blade (9)
    Hembree/ Maggard Timberwolf Brush
    Stirling Executive Man SS
    Proraso Green AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Beard Growrh: 40 hrs

    I haven't had this amount of stubble in over 3 months and I welcomed it with my Dovo Shavette. I decided to make a creamy lather for this morning’s shave using the froth method. It definitely was Stirling slick. Lol!
    I made more than enough soap to make more than 3 passes. In fact, I did the unfathomable and never before did 4 passes of WTG, ATG, XTG and finally ATG. I did 4 passes because the blade is not as sharp. I usually get 15 to 20 shaves on a blade, but it seems like I may have to bin it before 15 shaves.
    Anyway, the alum didn't give any feedback and the Proraso Green aftershave was very soothing and refreshing. Take care.

    Fatabulous Friday shave Danny. Evan's aluminum handle looks really nice. Enjoy your day.

    Very nice shave Joe. I thought about going with the Proraso Green today but I opted for the Fougere.
