Saturday's Shave

THE STUFF"
King Gillette DE / King Gillette Blade
CBL Soaps Butterscotch / AMACK Synth
Asylum Royal Fougere Shave Soap
Proraso Alum / Thayers Cucumber
Asylum Royal Fougere Aftershave Splash
Penhaligon's English Fern Talc
Penhaligon's English Fern EdT

THE SHAVE:
Nice and easy 3-passer today using the Royal Fougere, not quite as soft and creamy as the English Fern, but just as intoxicating with a bit more of a sharp note. BBS, and did not chase the Dolphin today as the King Gillette is so mild. Pen's to finish everything today for a nice quiet day at the Barbershop

OTHER RAMBLINGS:
Only scheduled 5 services today ( which ended up to be 7 ), but got to see Kyle (@uacowboy) and little Johnny and get rid of three months of hair and have a nice visit, a perfect end to the week without killing myself. Let the 3-days off begin, and looking forward to the TSC Zoom call. Looks like we have a great crowd!

Thanks for stopping by
 
Now that’s a nice easy day that says “I’m not gonna overdo it” 😜

Hope Kyle and family are well!

Nice Straight razor shave with the Viking today. Just refreshed on the Trans Ark and was lethal sharp and smooth. The Desert Vetiver is such a nice soap. Sharp Spicy, yet smooth. wonderful stuff. 3-passes and DSBBS. Some alum, thayers, talc and aftershave is all that was needed today. Video avail. Shortly, as @novicewetshaver asked for a lather video. Will be on the site soon

Aye Yi Yi, sore today, but just a lazy day of doing nothing around the Ranchito. Listen to a bit of Air traffic, and get ready for what hopes to be a nice TSC Member Zoom call today
