Shaving adventures of a Milkcrate

Shave Count (DE: 460 SE: 9 SR: 619)

Pre Shave-
Strop: Tony Miller Plain Vanilla 
Scuttle: none
Splash and go

Shave-
Razor: Solingen SR
Blade: none
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia Badger 
Soap: Haslinger Marigold

Post Shave-
Post shave lather
AS: Ethos Lavender 

The Process-
Early morning shave and tried something a bit different. I thought I would try a two pass shave to see how that would go. I went with an XTG and ATG pass, it was a very nice shave and I am DFS for the win! That’s right friends and neighbors, I missed the sweet spot by that much. I hate when that happens. Still a good shave and I will work out the kinks. Wrapped everything up with a splash of the Lavender AS and everything was right as rain. Another busy day at work, so let’s get to it. Life is good!

GREAT shave Tim

The Process-
Late morning shave today and it was luxurious. Kicked the snooze button to the curb for the weekend and enjoyed waking up naturally. I went with a 20 second load time, with a warm brush and it whipped up a really nice lather. Did I mention the scent? ... very nice!

10 laps on cotton and 40 on leather and it was go time. I went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. No playing today, I wanted to enjoy all three warm passes and that was some goodness. Slow, steady and smooth. Did I mention that I am BBS for the win! Also had extra for a post shave lather.

Wrapped everything up with a quick rinse and pat dry. Followed that up with a healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! Oh yes it was. That’s a shave to start the day. Life is good!

I didn’t realize how exceptional yesterday’s shave was until this morning. I hardly had any stubble to shave today. But that won’t stop us from another glorious BBS ... no it won’t. I am one again clean shaved and smelling great! Life is good!

Nicely done Tim
