June 16, 2024 - Father’s Day

  • Brush: Stirling - Synthetic 24mm
  • Razor: Gillette - Flare Tip Super Speed 1950’s
  • Blade: Gillette - Super Blues
  • Lather: Gillette - Shave Gel Island Breeze
  • Post Shave: Brut - Signature Scent Splash
  • Fragrance Brut - Signature Scent Cologne

SOAP - Gillette is old! Like super old! So does that makes their shaving gel any good? FAT NOOPE! It’s awful and then some. I mean there is no hydrating your skin with a foamy gel filled with chemicals. But the brand label is old and today OLD is Theme! So I am pairing the rest of my set with old like Brut which is what my father used to use! What does it smell like? Well it smells like the color!!! Green. I don’t think you could make anything that would literally smell like a color and they nailed it. Green and old.

RAZOR - Another oldie from the 1950’s TTO. Shaves like a hot knife on butter.. clean as a whistle….

THE THEME - Why leg day on FATHER’s DAY?? Why??? Well this is not my first rodeo but right when it’s hot and sticky and humid! Okay pre shave and I set myself up HERE! And went to work. I wear my shorts low so not a big deal there. Thank goodness this was a one man show cause let’s say if we had to shave our backs then another person would have to get involved and logistics would be tricky. HINT…HINT… maybe next year who knows. FINAL RESULT!!

Yeah that was not fun. Razor kept getting clogged and took forever. Okay ready for the day so my kids can make fun of me all day for shaving my legs! Happy freaking Father’s Day!
