Have a great day!

Tuesday -

Mondial Boar Brush
Fat Boy Razor set at 4 with a fresh Astra SP blade
Began with a new puck of Mitchell's Wool Fat that I just purchased as I wanted to give it another shot having not tried it in years. It is my favorite smell of any soap. But, just as has been the case, the lather was thin and disappearing...soooo I switched to a new container of Proraso Green I purchased with the MWF.
Nivea Sensitive Cooling Balm for the finish.

SOTD 01/28/20

Sorry for the delay in posting, but today is my son’s 45th birthday, and there were many last minute logistical issues to resolve. All done! Now since this was to be my first head shave in several days, I fell back on my adjustable Christopher Bradley Razor from Karve Shaving. I normally shave with the E-OC, but today decided to use the B-OC, mildest plate I own, in order to protect the tender gourd! There are still some healing areas. That dependable shaving tool coupled with my favorite soap, MWF, resulted in a CCS, which was more than acceptable given the circumstances. I changed the plate to my usual E-OC for the face shave. One careful pass to the dome and a three pass (WTG, XTG, ATG) face shave left with a very smooth BBS result for the face. I keep forgetting what a great shaver the Christopher Bradley is. I feel clean, smooooth and refreshed and ready for the festivities this evening. I’m gifting my son a Swiss Watch I own that he’s admired for years. I know he’ll be surprised, because the last time he asked about it I just told him it was staying in my will, and that he’d need to be patient.
