Brush: Zenith B36 Copper 28mmx50mm Boar
Razor: J.A. Henckels Friodur 451 5/8 Stainless Full Hollow Square Point
* Lather: House of Mammoth - Alive - Soap
Post Shave:* House of Mammoth - Alive - Aftershave
Day two ever with a straight and it already felt much more comfortable than yesterday. Sticking with using both hands. Razor in my right hand for my right side and razor in left for my left side which makes stretching the skin much easier and takes most of the effort from shaving my jawline since I can just pull most of that skin up over my jaw to where it’s flat (maybe one of the positives of looser aging skin?). Mostly comfortable other than my chin that is. I managed to get it mostly smooth but that never felt comfortable and I really have no good idea how to even go at it other than just some sketchy trial and error.
In a classic rookie mistake I completely forgot about stropping the razor before the shave today. Since I need to get at least another 29 shaves out of this edge, I need to do better at remembering that step…
This boar was noticeably less skritchy today and already splaying well, though it’s still eating lather like the hungry pig that it came from.
