I was oddly excited about this day of LG. I’m not a crazy barbershop fan but I was still excited to put together a nice shave for this day. There’s a story about going to a black beauty supply store on my lunch break to purchase what is definitely one of if not the most iconic bottles of aftershave, especially in the barbering world, but I’m not going to try to wax poetic this evening. I’m just enjoying everyone else’s posts. Today was my “Friday”, three twelve hour shifts in a row and I’m bushed. So what a better shave to finish off the workweek.
To start off with I had to break out the boar to honor the barbering profession. I was excited to try out ghost town barber but in the end was a bit let down in terms of scent, starting with Seville as my first full tub of soap set the bar pretty darn high, but the performance was great. And the moment I’ve been waiting for perfectly powdery nightcap of Pinaud Clubman.
Challenge: very challenging, at first I was too thick to figure out how to play the game and then I went 7/32. Fine, I knew a couple more and brain farted. Strange to think my brain is putting together all this information when I have only owned samples of three of these scents.
Be well. Cheers!
