  • Prep: cold face wash
  • Brush: Omega 21762 27mm Boar
  • Razor: Fatip Il Piccolo Storto Gold
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (31)
  • Lather: Abbate y la Mantia - Crumiro
  • Post Shave: Abbate y la Mantia - Crumiro splash
  • Tags: $UltraNightmareMode $RawHoggin $Discord

Day 31: Done. Finally done. What a Rollercoaster of a month to say the least. To say the most, well. Started off bad, continued bad, saw glimpses of light, felt really good, went bad again, but I finished on a high!
This final shave, I loaded the snot out of this soap with the tub full of water, and finally achieved a pretty decent lather. Used about half of what is left in it; who knew that's all it was going to take to get a good lather out of it! I sure didn't, and I'm glad I didn't because there is no way this tub would have made it to the end. It's probably got a few good shaves left in it total, but I am so happy to be moving on from it for now. Scrapped the blade already too. I learned that I can push the blade out this far and probably even further if needed, but now feel very blessed to not have to do that on the regular. Went into ultra nightmare mode not thinking I would be able to make it, but I'm super satisfied that I was able to see it through to the end, with having to move my AA den a couple states away while in the middle of it nonetheless!
Rawhoggin, not much to say there. I wasn't too nervous about actually breaking it in on my face for the whole month as I have broken in a couple boars before, but never without any extra procedures. It wasnt that bad! And now I have a great new style of boar knot added to rotation.
All in all, I would AA again. Probably not UNM, but it's good to know that I can do it. If need be.
