August 5, 2024 * Preshave: Hot Shower * Brush: Chisel & Hound “Rob’s Finest” Boar 25mm X 56mm * Razor: Henckels Friodur 451 No Stain * Edge: Pudding (5) * Lather: House of Mammoth Everett * Post Shave: House of Mammoth Everett Splash * Post Shave: House of Mammoth Everett EDP

Brush Pics are in the short album - tonight's shave was the best yet, though probably still not "good." I heeded some pudding advice and paid extra attention to the heel, middle, and toe tonight and i think that probably helped me avoid some cuts. Just a couple on my sideburns tonight (which are usually very easy areas because flat, but I digress), otherwise nothing too bad. My chin is an absolute monster to deal with and it's nowhere near BBS - I think tomorrow I'll attack it in very small swaths across the grain and see what happens - if I can get just a few millimeters at a time but do the whole ting would could be golden. Or it'll be a bloodbath, that's always possible.

Brush is breaking in nicely. Everett is still good.

I'm improving, I think, slowly but surely. I'll say this - it's only day 5 and this shave was better than any I had with the weck last year, so, I got this. And so do you.
