First straight only shave !!! Not BBS but darn close to... A little redness on the neck, hence the Anherb but a really NICE shave.. Wicked!!!

 

Sunday:

Savile Row badger
Parker 22R/new Sharp
De Vergulde Hand shaving cream

no doubt about it, the De Vergulde Hand cream has a super effect on sensitive skin. That's why it's been around for 450 years! Anherb is a great finish to a great shave.

I've used the B&B Standard Ebony for a week straight, and a B&B Finest Ebony for a week straight. Today was my first day back to my SR 3124... and THIS is the definition of dense knot and luxurious performance. Don't get me wrong... both my B&B brushes are winners, keepers, and will be part of my standard rotation. But like some of the other feedback (albeit a minority) on the B&B brushes, they're quite a bit less dense, and floppier than I thought they would/should be. I guess I built them up too much in my mind in anticipation??
