July 16, 2023 – Month of Lather Day 16

  • Brush: DS Cosmetics Carrot handle w/ 26mm 2-band Badger + Synthetic mixed knot
  • Razor: Rex Supply Co. Ambassador XL Adjustable
  • Blade: Treet Carbon Steel (1)
  • Preshave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented
  • Lather: Noble Otter – Barrbarr
  • Post Shave: Black Ship Grooming – Ship Wreck Cove Splash
  • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented Balm
  • Music: George Thorogood & The Destroyers - Get A Haircut

Daily Theme: Last fall, after decades of using Proraso Green I wanted something new. While searching I noted on the NO Barrbarr product page that "It will remind you of the days when you were a little kid sitting on the stool with that old barber giving you a haircut". That's all I needed to read and Barrbarr was the first tub of artisan soap I purchased!

The Challenge: When I first saw today's challenge, I was hesitant. I don't do memes. That's not my thing. Then someone set me straight. Here's some food for thought for GUTL practitioners.

The Shave: An effortless, enjoyable BBS today. It's nice when the software and hardware work well together. I forgot how much I enjoy Barrbarr's scent, and its performance was top notch as always. #ROTY
