SoS: July 2021

Thank you Gary

 

Gorgeous photo and lineup Amigo. I hope you are doing well.

Thank you Doug. I have not been riding at all this year. I have been having headaches and dizzy spells. I think those are just about sorted out and hope to start riding again soon.

 

Sorry to hear that Clint. I know how much you and your friend enjoy riding. Riding soon will make you happy I'm sure.

 

..yourself as well..

 

Thank you Doug. It will be nice to get back out for a ride soon. I just hope I remember how to ride.

 

Ya right.

Greetings,

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

It's been a while since i last added the fine fresh vetiver soap to my soap rotation and forgot how good of a lather this soap gives in a short space of time...

Another comfortable shave this morning from the Baili razor & blade duo. The Platinum + blade has surprised me with it's mild yet efficient smoothness.

An acceptable 2 pass + pick ups comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd President EdT to the pulse points.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Schick day 14
Master Soap Creations Frosted Spearmint SS
Prep ASB
Master Splash Creations Frosted Spearmint AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel Parfum

Miracle of miracles - the Schick blade lasted for three passes and gave me one last hoorah with a terrific BBS shave. Fernando is really a master artisan - his Frosted Spearmint is such a delightful soap in every way - the scent is beautiful, the lather works up great thanks to the tallow formula, the menthol sensation is heavenly, and the postshave feeling is perfect. I gave myself a nice long massage with the Prep, and the Frosted Spearmint aftershave went on like a menthol atom bomb. I can’t believe how smooth I am!

Have a good Sunday - be well and safe!

The CTAPT Shave Cream lathered well with the B-400 Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the 1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
