Austere August, Day 15 * Brush: Copper Zenith B36, bleached 28mm x 50mm * Razor: Ern 22 7/8 * Lather: Vintage Williams Tonsorial * Post: Proraso Red Aftershave * Frag: Ethos Mysore Santal

The key to this brush is not shaking it out before loading. The extra water does wonders for both keeping the hairs softer and making a better lather. The shorter loft really cuts down on how much water the knot can hold in general, so more water from the B36 isn't a bad thing.

Lather: House of Mammoth - Alive - Soap
Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Alive - Aftershave

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.

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.

It was day one again, this time for 7th and 8th graders. Despite the staffing shortage in our unit, it was probably one of the better first days of school I’ve encountered.

I had a great shave this morning, to boot.

Have a nice day and kind to one another.
