Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Shannon's Soaps Indigo Oud Shave Soap
Jayaruh #415 Synthetic
3D Injector Razor (2)
Schick Proline B-20
CWR
Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne

The Indigo Oud Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #415 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with The 3D Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B-20 Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

On this date in 1969, I boarded a jet at Tan Son Nhut Air Base in Saigon, South Vietnam, and put the war behind me, returning to the USA.

The Indigo Oud Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #415 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with The 3D Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B-20 Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave.

Saturday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/King C. Gillette day 4
Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
Prep ASB
Osage Rub AS Splash

Damn, I wish that Rod hadn’t discontinued this Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap because it’s awesome. It has the same lovely scent as his Sharp Dressed Man which is a clone of the Green Irish Tweed fragrance that I love so much, the lather works up perfectly thanks to the tallow formula, the menthol sensation is so intense, and the skincare is brilliant. The Prep and the Osage Rub were such a wonderful finish. Three passes left me smoother than silk!

Enjoy your weekend - be well and safe!

Jim, thank you for serving in Vietnam.

My father was there in 1967. By the time I was 19 in 1975 the draft had ended and the US was leaving Vietnam.
