It's Drinks N Dave's Day!

A fantastic NEW category of shave perfection! SDSBBS Shave today ( YES!, that is Scotch Dolphin Baby Butt Smooth ) A Scottish Myth, as there are Scotch Dolphins Roaming around the Peet Bogs of the Islay region of Scotland! @CBLSoap.com Drinks and Daves is a stupendous fragrance from the Minds of @NurseDave and myself, masterfully manufactured by the CBL himself.

That coupled with the @Smattayu Sorrentino Corleone, and the Stark Viking, it made for the perfect shave!

Finished off with DnD Aftershave, some Yardley Gold Talc, and Floris Islay.

What better way to start off the day, and our Rum Tasting Show Tonight!!


At the Ranch:

It is Barber Errand Day, and we are the Envy of the Nation, when it comes to weather with a high temp of 77 in Tucson, and up where we are at 74 with loads of Sunny Skies, and a few whispy clouds. Just Perfect and a Top Off type of day on the Vette

Continuing the shaves leading up to Christmas, SV tundra arctica was perfect. Picture taking your reindeer out for a walk in Lapland up on the tundra.
Not your wussy, self entitled reindeer that live in the north pole,but true reindeer that live in the tundra.

This soap has shades of liking tundra, berries, mistletoe, and of course, just a tad of oud(Agar Wood)

Three perfect passes for DSBBS with the black land vector finished up with a little bit of talk and used the tundra arctica as both aftershave and fragrance

Have a nice day folks

Yet again, continuing the Christmas shaves this time with SV Stella Alpina. As the product suggest this is a perfect high alpine style of soap with the feeling that comes with that.

To me, it reminds me of the Schloss Adler and “Broadsword calling Danny Boy”. Yes that was a music reference. We’ll see if anybody gets it.

The black land blackbird titanium is just such an efficient razor and the shave was definitely DSBBS

Finished off with the SV Stella Alpina, aftershave and ready to rock ‘n’ roll

One more day at the shop before Christmas vacation, that’ll take me into January

Hope everybody has a great day
 
Bougies pipes don't need that level of cleaning........Stefan keeps them maintained weekly.

More Christmas themed shaves leading up to Christmas. This one has campfire Juniper and Pine Forest written all over it fix yourself in a cabin with a fresh cut, noble fur, a roaring fire in a rock fireplace burning Juniper that’s basically the shave.

The pallet and chief was on lather duty, and the Osprey was on removal duty. Finished up with the captains choice north aftershave which is a smoky fiery wonder, some talc, and finished up with Duke Cannon’s Seneca which just added to that Christmasy feel

Final day at the shop, final day of work until 2025 looking forward to a nice Christmas vacation

Our Christmas zoom call will be tomorrow looking forward to that as well

Have a great day folks
