    Day 23/31 of Looking for Serenity in Austerity

    • Brush: Semogue Owner's Club (cherry wood and boar) (23)
    • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 50 (7/8", hollow ground, stainless steel, masonic deco) (6)
    • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Roman Spice
    • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Roman Spice
    • Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Roman Spice

    Break-in progress has seemingly stalled for the brush. I don't feel any day-to-day changes anymore, but the tips haven't split yet, so I'm getting curious about when this might start, as I expect a significant change in how the brush feels at that point. I might have to continue this break in through Straightember.

    Very nice early morning shave.

    August 23, 2024  

    • Brush: Dogwood / DG B14 Mammoth yellow label release  
    • Razor: Custom designed Böker 6/8 with bog oak scale and French head  
    • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. – Weekend in Malibu  
    • Post Shave: Saponoficio Bignoli – Liquiriza Menta  
    • Fragrance: Joop – Thrill  

    Another AA fail/win. I changed the fragrance as my Dunhill was empty. Thrill has sweet/ sour notes of green apple in it. It’s nothing special and I got it from the mom of my ex. It’s time to use up. Today’s shave went exceptionally well. The lather was great, the shave close and I was done in time.

    Yesterday we ordered a Ninja Creamy. We have an air fryer from the company and their ice cream maker will arrive soon. I guess I need to get insta to be an icefluencer because my mind is occupied with recipes I want to try.

    I also ordered a DMT mini plate like u/gcgallant uses in his videos. Maybe the $honemeisterschaft can answer me what Grey dots on my 12k and my slurry stone are?

    SOTD 23-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

    Very swift shave this morning, still decent though. Cracking lather whipped up by the boar and the blade took down the growth with no issue.

    Now to celebrate the little ones birthday, kicking off with a trip to an indoor fun centre (save my ears!).

    Have a grand one all.

    Cheers

    Marc

    I didn’t do as well today as the last couple shaves. Not horrible, but just didn’t feel like I was shaving my neck very well.

    Brush before the shave.
