Jun. 18, 2024 - propaganda is dead
Brush: Omega Pro 48
Razor: C.F. Schwartz & Co. Clover Four 5/8 square point * Lather: Dr. Jon’s - Propaganda - Soap
Post Shave:* Dr. Jon’s - Propaganda - Aftershave

Poor Dr. Jon. Jailed as he wasn’t really a doctor. Propaganda. It’s everywhere.

The truth is harder and harder to come by these days. But what is the truth anyways? My truth is that I really enjoy this vegan base and the scents that Dr. Jon put out. It’s a shame they are no longer making products. Great label art as well.

I finally tamed this straight razor. It just needed a little more time on the finishing stone. Today was a comfortable shave, although I’m not sure why I keep nicking myself on the cheeks. Can someone please help with some advice as to how to control this razor a little better? I know it’s only my 18th shave ever, but that shouldn’t make a difference. My cat says that my technique is just fine so what gives?
