Day 15 minus 2: Today was just a shit day, top to bottom, and this shave wasn't much better. Nicked myself and struggled with lathering this new Zenith brush, but managed to get it sorted eventually. I had to go back to the tub multiple times, and I think the total load time was well over 2 minutes, all combined. But, check the weights... Stirling base holds strong in the face of a brand new boar.

Pre-shave: 221.9g Post-shave, no rinse: 219.5g Post-shave, rinsed: 219.1g

Anyway, fuck this day, I'm going to bed.

Here is an album that I am going to continue uploading to throughout the month to show ~~progress of the brush~~ whatever I want.
