Tuesday 6.15.21
Pre: Cool Water Splash
Soap: MdC Agrumes
Bowl: CC ceramic
Brush: Paladin Chief in Lime (new acquisition and first use; Excellent brush. Thanks Dave!)
Razor: Karve C Plate with Triad Pineapple handle, in brass
Blade: Voskhod (1)
Post: Nivea Cooling Post Shave Balm
2.5 passes DFS-BBS
I’ve been at this for about 19 months and for much of that time, I now realize, I was pushing blades too far, using too much pressure, and not paying enough attention to the day-to-day variations in the condition of my aging face. Now that I’ve become more aware of this, I’ve noticed some things: first, even after all this time, I’m still enjoying this and am still pleasantly surprised be each good shave that comes around; second, I’m less uptight about how a particular shave goes; and third, I have a more balanced perspective on how the many variables can come together to produce a good shave. Overall, it is still lots of fun, and it’s still quite rewarding.
Happy Shaves Gentlemen!
