July 18, 2023 – Spooky Season

• Brush: Paladin Chief 26mm Satin Juma Smoke
• Razor: Blackland Blackbird Ti
• Blade: Astra SP (2)
• Lather: Southern Witchcrafts – Autumn Ash
• Post Shave: First Line Shave – The Weight
• Fragrance: Duke Cannon – Saw Tooth

The Shave: While I’m not a fan of this scent, the Southern Witchcrafts base is definitely fantastic. It lathered up easily for a smooth shave. What wasn’t as easy was trying to gather up my trimmings for the challenge. I decided to use a glass cup to facilitate this and make for easier picture, but the basin would have been much easier for the actual shave. There was so little water in the cup I almost felt like I was putting more hair on my face than I was taking off in the later passes.

Post Shave: For my post shave I went with The weight for 2 reasons. First it just smells like fall to me. The patchouli with the tobacco gives it that earthy with the saffron and pink pepper notes providing some spice. Second, it reminds me of fall hog hunting with the gunpowder notes. After the splash I tossed on a little Saw Tooth which has both cedar and amber notes to round out the fall theme.

Challenge: Yep I collected my shavings in a cup. Then I got to thinking, what could I use them for. So I collected the shavings as best I could on a paper towel and allowed it to dry before doing a little arts and crafts. Admittedly shavings are an awful medium to work with. I even did a little online research to find other options for the shavings. Now I have 2 boys myself who, on occasion, shave with dad. It’s a great way to connect with your boys, but I want to help those of you with little girls that might not want to shave like dad and dad likely doesn’t want to shave their legs. I have the answer to that gentlemen. Now you too can shave with your daughters and nieces and not just in their play kitchens u/OnionMiasma, u/iamhonestlylying, and u/tsrblke. Just a note, I did not make the Barbies, but if you gentlemen need help with it I got you.
