    Menthol Monday, December 15, 2014

    Prep: Hot-Warm Shower, Neutrogena Face Wash
    Razor: Late 40s Gillette Super Speed
    Blade: Astra SP - #3
    Brush: Whipped Dog Silvertip - 30 X 55mm - Maiden Voyage
    Lather: TSD Shave Stick - Iced Barber Shoppe :Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily:
    Post: Alum Stick, Aloe Vera Toner, Witch Hazel+, Gold Bond Green Lotion :Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily:
    Aftershave: Fine - American Blend

    Face lathered the TSD Shave Stick with my new brush. Larry @ WD did an outstanding job setting the 30 X 65mm silvertip knot deep. This brush is very soft with a rigid backbone. It, pardon the pun, whipped up a frosty lather in seconds. The Iced Barber Shoppe was very cool on this Menthol Monday. Hope everyone has/had a great shave today. Go for it. Today!

    Menthol for Monday
    Pre- Corn Huskers
    Soap - CO Bigelow
    Brush - Vulfix 660S Medium
    Razor - L3 SS flair tip
    Blade - Astra SS
    AS - Skin Bracer
    Very good shave today. Once again the SS comes through on a blade that was just OK in other razors. A DFS all around zero sting with Alum Block and AS. That makes the Astra SS and Feather that work great in the SS for me.
