Brush: Zenith B36 Copper 28mmx50mm Boar
Razor: J.A. Henckels Friodur 451 5/8 Stainless Full Hollow Square Point
Lather: House of Mammoth - Alive - Soap
Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Alive - Aftershave

Straight shave number seven. I’d say chin WTG now doesn’t feel uncomfortable. Not quite ready to say comfortable yet, but no longer totally awkward. I still haven’t found anything approaching comfortable for going XTG or ATG on my chin though so I’m struggling to get it as smooth as I’d prefer (I’m not looking for BBS, but ideally better than I’m getting it right now.)

I’m still having to reload for the second pass, and the brush paradoxically felt pokier today than it has since the first day. Not really sure I could say why… There is also some green oxidation starting to be visible on the copper on the inside top ring of the brush which I’m a little worried is going to start to stain the bristles. Not sure what to do about that…
