Day 31 of AA and #RawHoggin.

And that's all folks, the end of AA and the final day of RawHoggin. It wasn't difficult to use the same software for the full period, I do really like this stuff. The hardware was another story, with the Tradere SB and the MOAR Boar showing up on my doorstep has been nagging on my mind. 

I won't be taking a blade this long again though, the last few days weren't 100% comfortable. I think I said it before but around day 23 is probably the max for me with this razor. 

I do have a slight problem though, there's something that appears to have developed in my Soap tub that I've never seen before. Despite hours of googling it continues to baffle. 

The brush though, this was the star. A little bit of a wobble on the first few days whilst I struggled to get a decent lather, but after the first week it was absolutely plain sailing. It has developed fantastically well (though there doesn't seem to be a massive visual difference but it's definitely there) and will continue to see regular use in my rotation. 

Happy shaves everyone, I won't be participating in sample September, or at least not entirely. I've got a few SBS samples to trial but other than that the full sets are calling! 

Have a grand one all. 

Unboxing vs Day 2 vs Day 31 Pre
