    Thank you, Matt!

    I have always been fascimated by recent history: I do not feel anything re. Roman ruins: they date too way back!
    Instead I feel much for WWII! My parents told me what they went through! And that I skipped!

    E' la solita storia del pastore...

    Here I am again spreading information about my private life: it makes me feel like an exhibitionist!
    I am not Federico, but I want to complain anyway!

    And do not even dream of criticizing me, you, who tell what you buy, sharpen, lather, exchange, etc..

    I slept like a log and, only apparently awake, I inform you that there is no major news.
    Given the time I was able to shave, so not to spoil tomorrow's shaving with too limited growth, I used a very mild razor, set @1: I am looking decently, but tomorrow I won't have any problems.

    The brush is always spectacular (even if it has a green handle. I trust that sooner or later it will ripen...): it loads and releases foam with extreme ease, the razor... who has used it knows how it is efficiently mild and who has not used it has probably read about it.
    The soap... I am not objective: this Dutch croap is among my favorites.

    Given the time and the light, I thought it would take more lively music than usual.

    Now that you know my business, are you happy?

    I do not have anything better.
    It's not my fault: this is what we have and it seems they won't change it...

    Razor: Razorock SLOC- Mfg 2018> excellent milder mid range razor, very carefree shave for myself. Excellent razor to learn with and enjoyable for seasoned shavers IMO.
    Blade: Kai SS (4) excellent blade, sharp & Smooth and extra wider(.009") than a standard blade for greater blade feel.
    Soap: Ogallala Bayrum & Sandal wood- Excellent lather qualities and has a nice sweet spice sandalwood scent IMO.
    Brush: Yaqi tuxedo knot 24mm with black marble handle- excellent lather creator with cloud like soft tips.
    Preshave: Brush wash whole face with Cerave hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: witch Hazel + Ogallala Bayrum & Sandalwood [​IMG] + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers =[​IMG]excellent shave with my RR SLOC and Kai SS extra wide blade.
