DecemBoar Shave #7

Razor: Muhle Rocca
Blade: Rapira Lux
Brush: Omega 10077
Soap: Stirling Soap Co. Barbershop
AS: Skin Bracer


Nothing makes me smell like I just walked out of Pete's Barbershop in 1975 like this classic. Even has the faint hint of cigarrette smoke. Why do I have a sudden urge for an Orange Tootsie Pop?

Used my Zenith unbleached boar today with the velcro strap. It made a floppy wonderful brush into a soft, luxurious brush.

WOW!! A piece of living history, for shorn! Alas, I was using Barbasol in the red & white can and a Trac II (all us "men" in the house got one in the late 70s. That's accurate marketing and done without cookies and web tracking!).

DecemBoar 10 & 11

Unless something happens, Ground Hoggin' it tomorrow!

SOC cherry wood 
GEM Flying Wing
Personna GEM (7) Friday, (2) Saturday, through the magic of blade changing!
Ending up a week of Mike's unscented. Love this soap for its slickness.

The shave was just a bit too tuggy at the end, so binned the blade and pulled one out from the Sabre. I am again impressed, even with the tugginess, with how close the Flying Wing gets without blade feel! To quote a fast food chain, I'm Lovin' It!

Used the Semogue 1305 a couple of days ago. I love this brush. It’s well broken in and does a superb job.  All the images are of soaked bristles

That was the first I bought for this DecemBoar event. All of these 22mm Semogue are absolutely wonderful. Those guys REALLY know how to make a brush.
