January 2021 30 Day Rule/30 Day Focus Pic and Discussion Thread- All are Welcome

That's great you are dialing in your Gillette flair tip! Gillette didn't become the trailblazing brand for nothing. Have a great Saturday.

 

@jluc: Somehow, I have Jim photo withdrawal syndrome.

 

Thank you,Joe. Enjoy your weekend.

January Rule Shaves # 5-7

The Gillette rule marches along with great results. Today's shave consisted of one+ pass on two days of growth with near-BBS results. I skipped the ATG pass on my cheeks and the second ATG pass on my neck, for science, and they still feel surprisingly close. Tabac aromatherapy, soon to be rediscovered by @jtspartan, his pod and coworkers for at least 30 days, hit the spot for a relaxing, snowy Saturday.

@Hembree and I are kicking around some joint Parker SRX exercises in February. It should be fun, 'specially if we use a certain soap cherised by rational Philadelphians.

Enjoy your weekend, gentlemen. Grace and Peace.

 

I am veddy happy to be corrected!!! Time to break out the Auto Strop A soon.

 

So another of my questions because I do not keep up enough. Is that soap an actual smell like a cigar????? I gotta know.

 

Thanks, Joe. I assure you, the SMN Patchouli is nothing like what you have in your memory. SWMBO gave it her UNSOLICITED SWMBOSOA©
At the risk of offending some, who really enjoy Glastonbury THAT is a dirty patchouli scent. Sorry fans of Glastonbury...and I know there are many.

 

Great shaves and photo Charlie.

Reshave with a days growth and all variables the same to confirm if this was or wasn't the same as the first iteration of the 40s style super speed. Answer is no and I screwed up on my initial impressions. It is a very close shave but no BBS cigar for under the chin. It would probably get someone with finer hair across that line though. With that said this razor should shave someone much closer than any 3pc tech or Super Speed sans the rookie card Super Speed I put this up against.

 

Wanna bet?

 

Maybe monthly, assuming I have something good to report.

I still need to add more charts and graphs to make it overly complicated.

 

Thanks, Joe!

 

Great shave, Joe, with the new safety razor! Glad it went well! I’m sure you two scoundrels will enjoy your breakfast together!

 

It may move closer to the top of my "list" soon. Good thing I'm doing a NB 2021...

EDIT: I meant to have a "NOT" included in that last sentence. Oops.

 

Kudos, Dave, for getting your Buddy started in traditional wet shaving. I bet you two had a blast on Zoom.
