Lather Games Day 16- Off To the Barbershop We Go

  • Brush: Vulfix Pure Badger
  • Razor: RazoRock GameChanger .84-P
  • Blade: Astra - SP Green (8)
  • Lather: HSSC - Barbershop
  • Post Shave: Proraso - Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol Splash

Barbershop scents don't really do it for me. Sure, I have fond memories of getting haircuts at the Suniland Barbershop in the 'burbs of Miami while sucking on a DumDum lollipop and getting to ride the metal duck on the big metal spring while waiting (the barbershop and the animals on springs in the barbershop are still around), it doesn't make me want to shave with that nostalgia. In my 30 for 30 quest, I grabbed a sample of Highland Springs' Barbershop not expecting much out of it. HSSC is definitely an underrated soap around this sub but the base is fantastic. The scent? It's a friggin' talcum powder bomb to the face which is friggin' perfect. I don't care about the Clubman-y notes that most soaps try to go after, I just want the powder and this delivers. This is the brush of talcum to your neck post-cut but right to the face. Finished off the shave with the classic Proraso scent and I was good to go for a Sunday morning. My mood is definitely uplifted.

As far as the Daily Challenge, my meme game kind of sucks but here's my effort.
