    SOTD 15-Aug-24

    • Brush: Zenith - Unbleached Bristle 506U
    • Razor: Henckels - Friodur 17
    • Lather: House of Mammoth - Beloved
    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Beloved AS
    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Beloved Balm
    • Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Beloved EDP

    Decent shave this morning, had to be quicker than I would like as we were having to rush out the door. Still a decent finish but perhaps not as smooth as previous outings but still acceptable.

    Haven't had the time to throw together proper photos these past few days, I'll have to try and up the effort for the second half of AA.

    Hope everyone has a grand one!

    Cheers

    Marc

    Straight shave fifteen. Approaching halfway through the month. Tomorrow will be past it. I wasn’t paying enough attention this morning and managed to reopen two of the cuts from yesterday on the first pass. Kept the second pass to WTG as well and avoided those spots. Seems like it just peeled the small scab off and didn’t cut any deeper so they stopped pretty quickly. Overall a fine, but not great shave.

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave. $headless $FriodomRiders #NoStrop

    Edge Condition Album

    Fifteenth excellent shave on a straight that has not been stropped. I'm in uncharted waters. With straights that I strop after every shave, I know I can get about 30 shaves before a refresh, but I generally do an edge refresh after about 10 shaves.

    I have no idea what's going on with this setup.

    I shaved early this morning, but didn't get a chance to post until now.

    I've gone practically nose-blind to Roman Spice. Bummer.

    Good shave, otherwise!

    Almost was too tired to shave today. Just drove from Virginia yo Wisconsin. We left before 6:00 in the morning, and got here after driving for 13 hours. We get to repeat it on Monday, but will try to leave early enough to skip the morning rush around Chicago.

    Not the best shave today. A little too tired to do a good job. No blood, but the shave was lacking. At least the splash is feeling great on my face. I did bring my 8k and 12k stones, but forgot my loupe. I may try a magnification app on the phone to see the edge better when I hone tomorrow or Saturday.

    My gear for the trip
