    August 1, 2023 – AA 1: Mammoth Month

    • Brush: r/wetshaving Zentih MOAR BOAR 31mm
    • Razor: Gillette Red Tip Super Speed
    • Blade: Gillette Nacet (36)
    • Lather: House of Mammoth – Dammusi
    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth – Sonder
    • Fragrance: House of Mammoth – Smash

    Went with a rainbow theme, once I had software and the lovely Moar Boar picked seemed fitting to add colors on either end.

    No strong opinions on Dammusi yet. Sonder and Smash are both excellent. Not sure picking up with an older AA blade from 2 years ago was a great call, so we’ll see. I’ll have to double check but think even for #MammothMafia23 I can swap that if I need to. u/LaTuskFamilia.

    Pretty sure my MOAR BOAR might have a couple more shaves than listed, but here’s that album.

    Day 2… #MammothMafia23. Regretting the old blade. Had a few small break outs on neck today. Could be coincidence, but I’m doubtful. Maybe I’ll sanitize the blade.

    So, opted to weigh products at 5 shaves in. Not as much use as anticipated. Soap only went down 2 grams (granted it’s not the best scale), implying average of .4g soap per shave. I am doing either 1-2 passes. Balm I mostly just need 1 pump, also down 2g or .4g average per shave. Frag only went down 1g. Now, I know water is 1g=1mL, I’m going to presume that is true for my frag or at least close enough for this sake. Only down 1g implying .2mL average per use.

    Blade hits 40 shaves today. Boar break in on 34. #MammothMafia23

    Another evening cold water shave. Just 1 WTG pass. Break in album. I feel like I alternate, albeit unintentionally, between wet and dry bristle pictures, but is what it is. #MammothMafia23

    Almost forgot, then didn’t want to, but did for AA. Today marks 40 shaves in a row for me, and I’m sure many others who did LG and didn’t take the day off. Never done that before but cool to get a little streak going. 44 on this blade, one little weeper in “soul patch” area. #MammothMafia23

    Brush break in.

    2 pass cold water W/XTG shave. I can’t tell if I’m just getting used to it but the blade feels like it’s mellowed out a bit the past few shaves, we’ll hit 50 tomorrow!

    Break in album and #MammothMafia23.

    50 shaves on this blade! Look out u/sgrdddy, I’m right on your heels, lol.

    15 shave break down:

    shaves #11-15: 4 grams soap (.8 avg per shave), 2 grams balm (.4 average per shave), 1 mL frag (.2 avg per shave).

    Overall all 15 shaves: 12g soap (.8g average), 6g balm (.4g average), 2mL (.13mL average).

    Brought my soap use back down a bit from shaves 6-10 but up still a bit from first 5. Thinking .8 per is going to be the sweet spot.

    Break in album and #MammothMafia23.

    Today marks 50 days of shaving in a row for me, something I’ve never done. I’d wager a few people are in the same boat if you did LG and didn’t take the day off before plunging into AA.

    Still loving #MammothMafia23

    software usage album

    Usage for last 5 shaves, #16-20: 6g soap (18g total), 3g balm (9g total), 1mL frag (3mL total). Averages of 1.2g, .6g, and .2mL respectively for last 5. Overall averages of .9g soap, .45g balm, and .15mL frag. Not sure why balm use changes as that’s easily the most consistent 1 pump use, so probably the scale.

    Very hot here today and in the house, cold water shave, 2 pass.

    Break in album and break in album part 2 due to image limits (probably means I should just call it, if I make it to 100 perhaps I’ll stop). #MammothMafia23

    Glad this month is done. Not because the products, they are all stellar, but itching to try some recently acquired stuff. Different blade too. Excited for Daydream for next few days while I’m on the road.
