It’s Friday! Ok my Friday. Busy weekend with a car show, zoom call and of course errand day on Halloween 🎃.

Great shave today with the original tallow EF and all the goodies. The SV aftershave works well for a match, and the talc is a perfect finish

Have a good weekend folks

Great shave today with the Floris. A big thanks to @Scuttlesoap for the beast of a brush, it is very nice, and @NurseDave for the other goodies received. Floris has a small offering but does it perfectly. Not to mention, the choice of Ian Flemming and James Bond himself. 3-passes with the Tridente today and, included the cleanup and flat blading in the last pass, with pretty good success. DSBBS for the win.

Have a great Tuesday Folks

Shave Details:
Awoke at approx 0500 am, coffee, shower, and floated approximately 1 tablespoon of cold tap
Water on soap pick while showering. Arrived in shave den at 0520 with shave commencing post puck lathering at 0525. At shave time, soap density was nominal and approximately 61 degrees. Lather was applied via Sorrentino brush with both Clockwise and Counter Clockwise motion at a pressure of 6.235 lbs. Passes one, two, and three, were completed at intervals of 45 secs to 1 minute consecutively with post rinses between passes, and water temp at 51 degrees.

Post shave rinse lasted approximately 22 seconds, followed by a 22 micron mist of 23 seconds of the Quinn’s Pink Grapefruit and Orange Rind With Hazel, and Alum. This was followed by a .5 gram dollop of Lochranza Aftershave Balm applied, with a follow up of a 1 ounce splash of Ruezel. Talc was applied with a re-purposed Crabtree and Evelyn badger shave brush. Shave was completed on or around 0540-0545 am.

Lochranza EdT was applied at 11 heat points bi-laterally to ensure proper concentration and projection. All shave equipment was cleaned, and stowed at 0600 and shave den operations and powered down at 0610 ending daily shave

Shave report submitted to @NurseDave as he is needy. At 0847 3 November 2022
